lowered it and the mixtures went out of wack and needed a reset. What
part does this play is it like the old Carter AFB carb where you had
the big air bleed on the bottom between the mixtures ? Does that screw
control a air bleed ? My car spark tester does not seem to work on
this machine must be different in voltage than a car engines voltage. I
was so furious day before last that I wanted to send it sailing into
the nearest wall.

The idle adjustment screw only regulates the butterfly, Set the hi and low screws where I suggested and try starting it. If it idles too high with the low speed adjuster opened at one turn leave that adjuster alone and only lower the idle screw.
If you still can't get it running properly have a friend snap a picture as it hits the wall and post it here. Then go buy yourself a STIHL and be done with it !!!
