On a PHBH carb, which way do you turn the mixture screw to weaken the mix?
Because I just read 2 different things on the interweb that gave different opinions.

Interesting, one article I read said that if the screw is at the back then you are adjusting the air flow and that screwing in will make it richer and out leaner. :wtf:

as giankx, I've always gone with the general rule that if the screw is behind the slide, it's a mixture screw, so in to weaken; if it's at the front, it's an airscrew, so out to weaken...
try it right in, and then say 3 turns out; that should tell you which way is which... if it doesn't seem to be making any difference, you may need a different size idle jet anyway...
