The needle and seat in the carb should prevent more fuel into the engine as you crank it. Holding the butter flies open don't affect the needle and seat operation. But having said that crank it and see if it's dumping fuel into the engine.
Again back in the day I don't recall disconnecting the fuel line but it's been 30 plus years.
