Find the fuel adjustment screw. Open it just a touch.
Real good idea, except that particular carb/engine doesn't have one.

Same on a motorcycle. You have to drill out some metal to get at the
adjustment screw.


The Tecumseh service book points out they now use a different jet
instead of adjusting screw. Nothing to drill. I suspect Briggs and
others use the same system.


Thank the EPA for taking away our adjusting screws. Everything is built
for morons these days.
