Hi Don,
I just tried the settings that you mentioned. I basically had the 1 3/4 turns out from closed on the high speed needle already.
Can you confirm that the low speed bleed setting is 8 1/2 FULL turns out from closed, that seemes to be a lot. Did you mean 1/2 turns which would make it about 4 1/4 Full turns. It is too late to run the engine tonight but I will try in the morning.
Thanks, Jim
