I have information on the web site under fuel reference if that will help.
If you think it's running to lean and hard to start then put the 3mm allen
wrench in the hole and turn it clock wise 1/8th turn and try it again. That
should be enough to allow fuel to flow to the injectors.
I usually put the allen wrench in the hole with the bend in the handle
pointing at or about 12 o clock so I will know where the starting point was.
