Yes, it would be nice to know which carb we are
discussing. The side draft DCOE does have an idle mix
adjust. When you adjust idle mix on any carb, you are
not really tuning it, you are just tuning part of it,
mostly just how it idles. The DCOE is just set up to
be very tunable, which scares folks. Other carbs are
just simpler, less tunable and have a set CFM.
