Question Adjusting idle mixture screws on 1406

Hey guys,
I can't remember the procedure for adjusting the idle mixture screws on an edelbrock 1406 carb. I remember seeing the directions on the edelbrock site but can't find it now. Any help is appreciated.....Lumpy

I found the info on edelbrocks site finally. Does about 2 turns out on each screw sound about right? I had a pretty bad hesitation before from an idle to a hard acceleration. I just readjusted the screws and the hesitation is almost totally gone Thanks.
