Hi Paul,

I don't know where Redline get their adjustments from since many Webers I've played with (DCOE, IDA, IDF), have their mixture screws at an average of 3/4 turn out IF the idle fuel AND idle air are correct for the engine.

The rest of the carb can be all over the shop, and won't affect the idle/transition area of engine operation.

DCD, DGV etc tend to be in the 1- 1.5 out zone.

So by your info, Redline has had you running the engine a little fat (rich) at idle with the mixture screws at 2 turns out, and probably a little more throttle blade at idle to achieve your target idle speed.
