Default adjusting needle valves - which direction -

Hi everyone.. I am new to nitro engines and had a couple questions.

I have a GMS .47 engine and am trying to tune properly..

The low idle needle valve requires a clockwise motion to increase or open the valve. I know this because it used to shut off at idle until I turned it clockwise.

The question is.. which way is RICHER OR LEANER on the high speed needle valve.

I would guess its the opposite of the low needle valve.

Guessing that turning the knob counter-clockwise would make it richer while turning clockwise would make it leaner..


What do you think?

Thanks!!<br type="_moz" />
