The idle screw affects the amount of fuel that is sucked into the engine, just under the butterfly of the carby.

Yep, you have to screw the idle mixture screw OUT to richen the mixture. You will have very little chance of the engine idling with the screw screwed right in.

To get a rough estimate screw the idle screw in then back it out 3 half-turns (one and a half full turns).

Set the butterfly so the engine idles well.

Adjust the mixture screw to get a suitable idle with little flat spot off idle. Do this by testing the accelerator by hand and listening for any hesitation in the engine.

Finally reset the butterfly to get the right idle RPM.

This is not the MOST ideal way but should get it in the pretty well in the ball park.

If this doesn't work then there may be crap stuck in the idle circuit of the carby, which would require the carby to be pulled down and cleaned.

Cheers,
Tyron.
