Default 660 on rear wheels?

ok, I was experementing on whether or not I could haul my raptor along side a dirt bike. So I flipped the raptor on the rear wheels and gas started to pour onto the garage floor..I did turn the gas off, however I forgot about the gas in the carb.
So, now when I stary it, it runs rough and when I give it gas it stalls. Next I made my second mistake , I turned that little screw that adjusts the idol which I have no business doing because I dont know what Im doing.
End result, my quad wont start and Im supposed to be going away sunday for a riding weekend? Please help..
Thanks dan
