The idle mixture screw effects only that, the idle mixture. Other
driveability problems are caused elsewhere.

Subject: Idle/mixture Screw

Dear List
Does anyone know where approximately the air/fuel mixture screw (allen
bolt)
on the AFM should be set on an air cooled 1981 Vanagon?  I changed the
setting on mine and can't get it back where it should be and now it is
running very bad (dies on acceleration; running very hot).  How many
turns
from fully seated should it be?
Thanks
Michael
