turn the air fuel mixture rations all the way in then bring them both 1 and 1/2 turns out and once its warm and idling turn them in 1/4 to 1/2 and turn and the engine should start to stumble like it wants to die. then bring them 1/4 turn out counterclockwise.

if it does not start to die your jets are to big and you will need to remove them and start smaller maybe go down 2-4 sizes on the primary.
