Damn its very difficult to reach the a/f mixture!
Guys what type of screwdriver are you using???
I thinks my car is running lean.
Do we need a propane kit to set the good a/f ratio?

i know it's a bitch to reach you can use a normal small flat head screw driver ! to find where it is and how to adjust it without the kit ( didn't try the kit so i can't tell :D ) go to this site !

Can i just turn the screw when idle is normal.. because my car is leaning???
Its count or clockwise to put more fuel?

once you turn the screw the idle will change and then you'll have to adjust the idle with the other screw ! ( written in the site i posted ) !
clockwise = more gas ( richer )
counter clockwise = more air ( leaner )


BTW when adjustin the screw the car must be fully warmed up ( the coolin fan must come on at least once ) that way you'll get best resaults ) and you'll need someone's help to help you reading the rpm while you adjust because it changes slightly !

just read the page i posted carefully everything is there ! :D
