1 1/16 to 1 1/4 is the proper adjustment from a lightly seated position if it was running before and isnt now you most likely flooded the engine. Remove the plugs make sure there clean and dry and not soaked with fuel if they are replace them and recheck run. also make sure your tether button is operating
