Default RE: Newb needs help with tornado s30

Your going to get all kind of answers to this question. Some will say 3.5 turns out, others will say 2.5. I say don't get too worried about it. Turn the HSN out until is flush with the sleeve its in. Even if you come out too much it will just be set richer which is fine for break in. As far as your idle goes, pop the air filter off and look into the carb. Turn your electronics on. You should see a tiny gap in the barrel. As you turn in the idle screw you'll see the gap increase. This will let more air in and it will idle higher. You only want a tiny gap "approx 1mm". If the gap is not there, when you hit the brakes your car will stall. The idle screw also prevents the barrel from completely closing.
