Hey all i'm new to 2 strokes so i'm not sure how much oil i really should be burning. I do notice that the exhaust is extremely blue (i'm assuming its a little too rich). Could somebody tell me how i should adjust my air screw? Thanks in advanced
 
Typically you will adjust the air screw by turning it all the way in and then most people start at 1 1/2 turns out. The farther out you go, the leaner it will get. The screw is located in a hole on the air filter side of the carb throat.

Keep in mind that this only adjusts idle to off-idle mixture. Your smoke prob has more to do with fuel mix, like the other guys said.
