It seems like I have to make a carb adjustment once a week because the idles is too low. Anybody know what could be causing this? I'm afraid if I keep adjusting the screw it's eventually going to fall out.

You buy your own bus, and do what you want to your bus. I'll do what I want to so with mine. Pissing off purists one modification at at time.

Yes, have someone adjust it that knows what they are doing, THEN, Leave the dam thing alone. :icon_wink:
