Oh oh. I read warnings about running two strokes too rich or at wide-open
throttle. I run it at full throttle all the time (if I don't, it stalls).
Is that bad?

Anyway, I figured I'd better google for Poulan carb adjustment procedures:

Will try that.

BTW, I learned in this video that the low and high have H and L stamped on
them. Will look for that first.
