if you use a cylinder leak down tester attached to the intake of the barrow valve you will see the percentage on the gage - than you know you turn the rod and count the flats in or out to lean or fat in the mixture - by doing that you will know at what place you are and it does not matter that much in the idle to WOT but it the percentage, the start point, knowing that spot allows you in all weather to have settings - we have to be able in some classes to dial off the weather right out of the trailer with the time shot being the day before and totally different weather -- learning the system will keep your motor alive a lot longer -- jz
