A gasser is not like glow.... That sounded good to me. If you have a good idle and a nice transition to high power leave it alone and go fly.
if you do find you have to change the mix it's done in very small amounts like a 1/16 th of a turn.

A tachometer is super useful when tuning lower RPM engines like gassers and 4 strokes. With a tach, you can know exactly where the peak setting is and exactly how rich you are tuning it before the peak setting. For most gassers, 150-200 rpm rich is all they need to allow for unloading.
