Default Help with dle30

Hey guys so i can't seem to find "engines" in the sub forum so I posted here. I know there are hundreds of threads on how to tune this engine and beleive me I have searched and searched. Lots of things I find are very contradicting including the manual, claims if it stumbles to close the low, the next sentence says if it stumbles to open the high. So far the best thread I've seen is here

So I'm on my 6th gallon through this thing and it's gotta be very close, I have only been making very small adjustments every few times I go flying. According to the thread above claims that if you run it wide open and chop it back to idle it should go back to a steady idle, mine would go very low and work its way back up. I flew it like this for a very long time, until the other day I decided to follow this thread and lean the high just a touch, now it comes back to a pretty safe idle, and if I bump the throttle just a touch after doing this it then goes to a lower idle which is steady but lower.

It also stumbles a little when punching it but I don't want to continue chasing in circles without knowing exactly what it needs. I feel it's a pretty safe tune and have never seen a deadstick, I did however mess up the ignition wire and swapped it out with my ignition from my dle55, don't know if it effects the tune or if I should continue to tweak until I get the ignition fixed.
