Im working on a 1994 arctic cat EXT 580 carbed, it wasnt idling good, so i found spec for it and i was turn what i thought was the idle screw, but in fact it was the low mixer screw. after about an hour of pulling and it not starting i pull out one of the carbs and found the real idle screw. so i put it all back together and she idles great now. but now she has no power to start moving and i cant figure out how many turns it was at.

does any one know how mant turn out it is for stock specs?
Thank you for all your help.

I have a standard manual that covers 90-98. it says 1- 1.5 turns but the idle screw shouldn't give you no power. what happens when you give it gas? does it just bog and die?
