I did my first long drive in it today and it is running way hot.  I
think I may have gone too far in the lean direction.  There were a
couple of stops on this trip so I ajusted it clockwise about a
quarter turn at each and that didn't seem to fix it.  Are you sure
clockwise is richer?  There is a web page out there where the guy
says it is CCW for richer, but he isn't sure.  Is there any kind of
device I could use to measure the mixture?
