    Just make sure that the carb throttle is not “preloaded” tightly against its stop by the economizer linkage rod, this will cause the throttle plate/shaft to wear prematurely.

    And sometimes it is easier to have an assistant help make this linkage adjustment.  Not enough arms/hands/fingers to hold the throttle linkage wide open and adjust the rod.
