I've tested them on L-Jetronic systems by connecting an analog (it has to
be analog) ohmmeter across the wiper connections, and then very slowly
moving the flap.  You're looking for a dead spot where the needle suddenly
jumps towards infinity.  But that doesn't sound like your problem; if
you're running rich at all speeds, then it's either misadjusted or it's
not the AFM.
