How many turns out should the needles be on the bottom of the carb for a 70 gas? It has a duplex carb.

Thanks

jd70, not sure what the recommended factory initial settings are on your dual DLTX, but I use 1-1/2 out from seated on the idle screws & 2-1/4 out from seated on the metering screw. Then adjust from there for best idle when warm - [short out one side spark plug then adjust the idle on the other side, then do the same for the remaining side]. It will probably run good with the metering screw at 2-1/4 out but you might want to tweak it in a little while under load until it will just pull the load smoothly as that will greatly improve the fuel economy -[on a 70 that's important as the fuel economy is nothing to write home about]....
