Toast , there have been a few good posts in here on Ebgine tunning you might want to go back and check.

Does the car Idle ?

What Fuel are you running ?

Is it smoking alot ?? I mean alot !!

Is it the OE glow plug ?

Sounds like the high speed adj. Thats the big one one the right that you can adjust if the body is one. Try turning it in about 1/8 turn at a time < clockwise> If it makes it worst just go the other direction. You really don't want to mess with to many other things until the car will at least rev up a little.
