mikesmith:
Good advice.

kawdude:
How do i tell if the airscrew is ok?

gowen:
as in position? or the actual screw is bad?

I've always done this by the idle, I screw it out or in, whichever gives the best/most idle.

kawdude:
Is the most/best idle where the screw should be set?  If this is out past 1.5 turns the slow needs to be lowered one size.

gowen:
Kawdude, to my knowledge you are suppose to keep going down until you get the highest idle. I'm at a 42 pilot and going down, I'm thinking a 40 is my next stop. Cause I'm at 2.5 turns and still have a struggling idle.

I was at the 1st notch on the needle, but ended up being REAL lean on the mid. I'm at the 2nd and seems great in the mid, but the top is still a VERY  little rich on the top.

But, still have problems down low, I'm hoping to take care of the low-end and move to the 3rd notch in the mid.
