I see. Well for any downdraft carb it is important to keep the transfer slots in the range they will contribute the correct amount of fuel and air at idle. The method sugested by A/J will put it ballpark correct on any standard older 4150/60.
A search should turn up evidence this is not something A/J pulled out of thin air.

When transfer slots are out of range, then it is possible for idle to be OK, off-idle will have dead spot or delayed response.
