Default OS 40 LA Airbleed setting

Luftman,

You don't set the airbleed screw on the O.S. Max .40 LA engine by number of turns. You look into the airbleed hole and set the screw so that it blocks it halfway. That't the starting position. Turn the screw in to richen the idle (closes the hole). Turn it out to lean the idle (opens the hole).
