No such thing as a dumb question here Paul. Thats what this site is all about.

Its the Pilot Mixture Screw, which controls the amount of mix (fuel air mix) the carb gets at idle.

That's why some folks say ... it's doesn't do anything.

Best to turn it 1/4 turn at a time and give the motor time to adjust.
