On approach to landing; I was cleared to land. On a 2 mile final; I attempted to reduce power and the throttle had no effect. I attempted to adjust mixture; which dropped engine RPMs. I had enabled carb heat during my approach checklist and did not have any large power reduction with it enabled; so I disabled carb heat. I attempted to put in flaps at about 1 mile final; but power was still near full and I was at about 90 knots. I requested a go around from the Tower; which they cleared me for the go around. Near the end of the runway at about 300' AGL; I started losing power and speed dropped quickly. I [requested priority handling] and started my turn for [a different runway; and] informed the Tower of my intentions to land [immediately]. They diverted [another aircraft] that was doing touch and goes. I saw the [other] aircraft about 1/4 down the runway opposite direction start its ascent as I was crossing the numbers. I floated down the runway as I didn't have any flaps and bounced the landing 3 times until I was able to finally land. Upon landing the engine stopped completely and I was not able to clear the runway. I pulled the aircraft off the runway. The aircraft had a recent engine overhaul in the last 3 hours of flight.
