    Stihl strimmer carb question

    When the air filter is removed the air that enters the carb is more. So the mixture in theory is weaker. Should I set up the L screw nearest the engine to accommodate the engine to run with air filter left in place. Never had this issue before.

Does adjusting the self propel new cable help with this ? This grass isnt long & mower crawls along,any grass that is a bit higher i think it...
