    Hey guys, I have everything ready to go... just one quick question. When adjusting my carbs, which way do I turn the screws to let more air/gas, and which way to let less air/gas. I just want to make sure before I mess anything up...

    Thanks!!!

    Well, the adjuster screws for when you're doing a sync open and close the butterflies, "in" (CW) opens them more; the mixture screws are out (CCW) for rich, in (CW) for lean.

    But don't do either until you've checked your float levels.

    Then vacuum sync. THEN tweak mixtures.
