I have read to adjust the ALDA you back of the lock nut then unscrew the screw counter-clockwise until you get just a puff of black smoke on take off.

My adjustment screw is all the way backed out and still no sign of black smoke on mashing it upon takeoff.

Just looking for a little more scoot off the line.
I suggest you study these threads
