Yo Reb....take about 3/4 turn on the high speed needle and a full turn on the low speed. Should get ya' goin'. Set the high speed first. Then come down and set the low speed. Start the adjustments by going in. About 1/8 turn till you get close and then less as you get to the sweet spot.<br /><br />Edit: Don't get them too lean. Once you find the perfect setting, back out a little. This will prevent to lean running.
