[QUOTE="cajuncook1, post: 390532, member: 2832"] You can put the packing on the slow speed/idle needle then slowly turn the needle clock wise to gently seat the needle point. Then turn the needle counter clockwise 1 1/2 turns out. Now start tightening the packing nut until it take a some resistance to turn the slow speed needle. Once you have set the correct position to obtain smooth idle then snug the packing nut a little tighter, but not too much. You are just preventing the needle from wandering or being easily malpositioned. [/QUOTE]
