Carb Fuel Mixture Adjust (1 Viewer)

Hi Guys
I recently replaced the fuel mixture screw on my 2F Asian carb. (The head and spring were missing off the old one.) I've always read you start off my backing out the screw 1 1/2 turns. It seems mine starts running smooth when I back out about 3 turns. Should I be worried?

A normal idle mix screw setting is 3-4 turns out.

Glad to hear 3-4 is pretty normal. I kept hearing 1.5 was the norm. It runs great so I’ll leave it at that. Thx!
