Why do you think it's getting too much air and gas? You'll need to give some symptoms of how the motor is running.

All I really need is a stock guide to teach me how to adjust stuff. like where they are located and such, pictures would be a plus.

Try the "How To" section, you will get your answer there.

It seems like your on the rich side so here's what I want you to do, in the front of the carb ahead of the motor there is a screw that you turn, turn the screw in that will make it alittle on the lean side, not to much though maybe a 1/4 turn. If you need more help just ask me.
