[DML] My car won't start

["eremhcel" <dmcfive0@xxxxxxx>]

On Monady night, I was running my car and thought I could smooth out 
the idle a little by playing with the mixture screw. I turned the 
screw a little both ways and while doing that the engine would shake 
and want to die. I turned the screw back and it recovered from dying, 
then when I tried to smooth it out, it started shaking again then 
died before I could turn the screw back. Now the car won't start. I 
tried a few times later on because it seemed like the engine was 
getting flooded. I tried to start it after sitting over night and a 
few other times and it will start for a second then stall out. I have 
the battery on a charger because I could see the volts going low from 
cranking the engine, so after the battery is charged up I'll try 
starting it again. Does it sound like it's not starting because the 
battery was low, or because I turned the mixture screw too much? It 
always started before I played around with the mixture screw. Any 
help, suggestions greatly appreciated! 
Thanks in advance,
Mike
