Hi, welcome to BCF.

If the choke is flicking over by itself its likely the grooves that the choke lever sit in are worn.
My old CG used to flick the choke on when I violently kickstarted it.

As below, on the side of the carb, the choke lever should have a metal plate over it with 3 holes, choke on/half choke/choke off, underneath that plate there is a ball bearing which creates the resistance when you flick it.
It's quite possible your hole is shagged. Gagged

With mine I just bent the metal plate slightly, creating more pressure between metal plate and ball bearing which did the trick.
If it was worse chemical metal would likely do nicely though.

You should be able to remove that screw/plate easy enough even with it all assembled.
Look at the plate through the three holes from the back, you will see light grooves in between the holes, but if the holes no longer look circular and ovalled towards the grooves that's likely your problem.
