The idle speed adjustment must be carried out with the engine warm, proceeding as follows.

- Adjust the idle screw (fig. 17 pos. A) in order to obtain a constant rotation of the engine.

- Tighten and unscrew the air screw (fig. 17 pos. B) until the highest number of engine rpm is obtained

- If necessary, further adjust the minimum screw


Note if you buy a brand new complete carb it will need setting to the above specs as it will not be set up for the AF1, plus you will need the cable choke kit rather than the manual lever. Buy a complete carb here
