i never touch the primary screw..reason is you can make the engine stumble if you are out of the idle circuit..

FYI I am not talking mixture adjustment screws...I am talking secondary blade adjustments.

Is this a dominator or a 4150 ?

I adjust the primary butterfly with a mix of idle speed and mixture screws like all carburators.
My secondary butterfly I adjust to compensate for the RPM drop when I put it in gear.
If the idle speed drops too much in gear...I open secondary throttle plate 1/8-1/4 turn.
Adjust the primary idle plate and mixture again.
Go back and forth so that the idle is good in or out of gear.

I don't know if it's right. But it works for ME

4150

I think the main thing is not to over expose the transfer slots on either side. All you want to do is keep the transfer slot wet.
