I need to adjust my rich/lean mixture on carb, what is the screw setting? I have it almost 2 turns out now, seems to be running rich. The screw that I adjust is on the bottom of the carb, is this the right screw? Also, what is the procedure on adjusting the valves.

Why do you need to adjust it? Did you add something aftermarket? The screw is in the bottom and its tough to reach without one of those stubby straight blades. Stock should be right at 2.... 2 /1/2 turns out. I think I have mine set at about 3 1/2.

As far as the valves go....I'd take it to someone.

 

Thanks, I took the carb apart, cleaned it, was idling rough. I adjusted the screw to where it was before, but seems like it was running rich before, so was just curious of the adjustment.
