Shut off the car. The magnet should then release.

Check the linkage at the carb. Something might be stuck there. Careful not to damage linkage.

I'm with cdrad51 --- When I've had that problem in the past it was a problem with the linkage at the carb... usually I just had to reseat the cable in the linkage.

If you can't find any problem withthe linkage, check the choke butterfly in the carb. I've had them stick when they get really gummed up, check the shaft also.
