    If it’s idling lean, turn the mixture screw out a bit (CCW) to richen it. This low speed needle should be set slightly rich from smooth idle anyway to help prevent stumbling when opening the throttle.  As mentioned, the high speed mixture is nonadjustable on this motor and is controlled by a fixed orifice jet in the carb bowl.
