Didn't seem right to me but might explain why it runs rough and seems to run rich.

At least on my rigs, you need to turn the fuel valve on and off. If you do not turn it off, you may end up with gas all over your floor underneath your rig depending on how well your carb is maintained. I always turn the fuel valve off when parking the rig. Then while running the rig awhile to get it warm, I adjust the GAV till it "sounds" like it is getting the right amount of gas. You will find the "sweet" spot for your GAV as you get into it more. Then you will find, at least I do, that you don't need to adjust the GAV very often. Have fun!
