Idling nozzle and mixture adjustment screw Controls the mixture from the closed position to an opening of 1/8 of throttle range, but has little effect on full throttle. To adjust the mixture in this range, the air screw can be turned to change the air flow through the circuit, or the slow jet can be changed to provide more or less fuel. The air screw must be turned from a lightly seated position. If turning the screw between 1 and 2. 5 turns does not give the desired results, change the slow jet (B) one step and tune up with the air screw (A). Carburetor jet needle The jet needle and jet needle hole together have their greatest effect in the one-half throttle range. The needle moves in and out of the jet needle hole; since the needle is tapered, its position in the jet determines the amount of fuel allowed to flow.
