The instructions had pictures of the internal carb parts and it says exactly:
The Air/fuel mixture screw (idle) should be preset at 3.5 turns counter clockwise from the totally closed position. DO NOT back off screw more than 4.5 turns or vibration may loosen the screw and cause it to fall out. <happy cheapskate notes, spare included in kit> If this situation occurs, stop engine immediately and replace mixture screw.
Are we talking about the NT carburettor supplied with most 2-stroke engine kits? If so, there is no idle mixture screw, only an idle speed screw. This is not an Air/fuel mixture screw.
From the above, it sounds like you're talking about a totally different carby. (or I am.)
(Post a pic if you don't mind.)
By now, poor wrinkledoggi must be totally confused.
