Hi, trying to adjust the co on me 190e and nothing happens you can turn the screw all day and it still runs at 9%. Is the housing a comon fault or something like fuel reg ?. Car drives sweet as and starts ok. any ideas cheers

The adjustment screw is in the top of the air filter. You need a 2mm allen key and press down through the hole. You will feel it engage. Turn only a fraction of a turn at a time.

As Ian but once the key is engaged, do not push down and open the plate. a quarter of a turn will stop the engine
