posted by  someone claiming to be twin SUs on  Tue Oct 14 22:47 CST 2008 [RELATED]

running twin SUs in my '66 122,

I need to adjust the mixture with the nut(s) under the carbs, but I don't remember which turns do what.

turning the adjustment nut from right-to-left lowers the nut, lowers the jet and richens the mixture.

Towards the back of the car is down (richer), turning towards the front is up (leaner). I always have a hard time remembering this if i haven't adjusted things in ages.
