The needle should be opened 1 1/4 to 1/2 turns from shut, once you have it running make small adjustments. You may need a bit more open once you put it in gear. For the idle set screw if it has one, wait til the motor is warmed up before you adjust higher or lower. Remember that settings will have a different effect when you have the motor running in a barrel or on the lake. Where are you located.

Okay, maybe someone closer can give you a hand, too far for me.
