Red face GS550 help!!!

I have a 1980 suzuki GS 550 and I just replaced the petcock because it wasn't getting gas. After putting it back together it wouldn't start so I sprayed a little starting fluid and it tried to run but now it starts up wind open and I have too turn it off right away. Could something have stuck open when I spay the SF? Please help if you can.
