Its been so long ago, and I don' have the EC-2 instructions with me, I can't tell you what mode it was. (I could look it up when I get home from work later today) I do remember the instructions stating that you could adjust a max of +/- 127 steps. There is a second method of adjustment if you need more than that. I was very surprised that I had to go as far as I did to get it to idle properly, with the mixture knob centered in the 12 o'clock position at the same time. I'm sure I'll have to some more tweaking when I can actually load the engine. (Tracy mentions that you shouldn't even attempt tuning without a load on the engine... Oops, sorry Tracy.) Mark S.
