Sounds like the timing and the mixture are off. To adjust the mixture you need to:
1) Gently turn both mixture screws in until they bottom out.
2) Back them both out 1 1/2 turns.
3) Start and Warm up engine
4) Turn idle speed down as LOW as the engine will maintain.
5) Adjust the screws, in two round trips (adjust one side, then the other, then come back to the first side, then go back to the other side) to get the highest RPM.
6) Add an aditional 1/8 turn out for each screw.
7) Reset idle speed to desired level.
8) Shut off engine and check that both screws are the same. If they're not, set both to the average of the two.
9) Restart engine to check idle quality.

Take care,
-Chris
