I have just experienced a similar problem. The engine ran ok but with lots of smoke and would not rev. What I found was a broken choke spring. This caused the choke to remain in the closed position. A rubber band attached to the choke arm made a temporary repair until I fitted a new spring. (see Zenith 26VA choke spring replacement posted 15 -04-2018).
Cheers,

For choke read air strangler or air shutter if you prefer!
