Adjust the idle speed limit screw: Turn the idle speed adjustment screw until the engine speed reaches 1500 to 2000 RPM.

Adjust the mixture adjustment screw: Slowly turn the mixture adjustment screw left or right until the engine runs smoothly at a higher RPM. Adjust the idle screw: Adjust the idle screw to set the RPM between 1000 and 1300 RPM.

Below are key points regarding engine water ingestion: 1. Hazards: Continued driving with water in the engine may ultimately cause piston seizure within the cylinder. The connecting rod, unable to withstand extreme pressure, may bend or fracture - in severe cases, a broken rod could puncture the cylinder block. 2.
