On my Lyc IO360-C1C, I am able to get mixture sufficiently lean at idle and 
fast idle only by manual leaning with the Mixture Control.

We are now doing some of the initial taxi testing and are having issues
that appear to be mixture related.  I have tried to adjust the star
wheel to lean the mixture, but I don't seem to be able to get there.
Maybe I'm confused by the manual (how likely is that?) so which way do
you rotate that star adjuster (with the spring on the side) to lean the
mixture?  We are only at 900' so that should not be a big problem.  I
have rotated it until the wheel is almost to the bottom of the travel,
and we still seem to have an over rich condition.

Any hints?
