Mixture screw turns.

This is probably just one of those situations where I'm just over-thinking the technicality of what a "turn" consists of. For the life of me I can't find any reference on google or in any of my mechanical books.

So to help convey what I assume a turn is, here's a quick graphic.

Right?

I like to put a clear mark on the screwdriver handle in relation to the position of the blade to give you some reference when setting the screws.

Good idea, I was only thinking of using a sharpie to mark the screw.

The screw is not visible when the carbs are installed - so it's nice to have some reference.

Start by turning the screw all the way in and seating it lightly, then note where the mark on the screwdriver is - that's your reference "0" point.

Gotcha. That makes more sense if the carbs are still installed.
