It runs fine but has a few symptoms below:
- Cold starts are difficult, usually starts on 4 or 5 cylinders, then backfires and then runs on all cylinders just fine.
- If colder, I usually have to lift the pressure plate to get it started.
- If I set the idle air bypass screw to be 950rpm when hot, it oscillates when cold.
- Backfires a little bit on deceleration
- Spark plugs are light grey, very clean.
So my plan is to richen the mixture a tiny bit. Other suggestions?

You can raise the plate ever so slightly and judge to lean or rich. I think if you move your lever up just a tad and the RPM increases you are too lean.
