If they're talking about the screw inside the carb, then fine....however the big white knob for adjusting the idle speed is something completely different. It doesn't matter how many turns you give it. It's there so that you can set the idle speed to between 1200 and 1400 RPM, with the engine fully warmed up, and the choke off.
