When you say "slightly", do you mean halfway?  More that half?  Less than Half?  I've always wondered if I am using th e"right" procedure.  I usually use my hand to block it just enough to see a change in RPM, but I am not sure if I am doing it properly.

Cliff Ruggles:
Close it very slowly, it will start to richen up the A/F almost immediately.  You should have the engine right at 2000-2200rpm's when making the adjustments.  You should be able to hear the engine change pitch or speed just by running the APT screw up and down, if you are within range with the jets/metering rods?.....Cliff
