What would be a close start up setting on the carb screw? The carb is a pulsa jet.

Thanks, I just painted the tank tonight and try and start it tomorrow. If I have any problems I'll be back on this site!

Assuming that you painted it with a gas and oil resistant engine paint, they take about a week to cure properly and develop the resistance. If any gas gets on that tank tomorrow the paint will come off.

That's a good warning Michael, I've had that happen to me once a couple years ago.
