Hi frollikk as far as i know u can't adjust mixtures. & as (i quote) bigelboe told me u just have to find whats wrong with it. i had a similar problem with my T1 engine the symptoms were running very rich (backfiring because it couldn't burn all the fuel) & idle hunting, so i took it to the mechanics to fix it & he got out a spray can of engine start & sprayed along the vacuum lines (u can hear the difference in the sound of the engine when u find a vac leak, the leak sucks the engine start in). the problem with my car was the vacuum advance was leaking causing all sorts of problems, so i got a replacement that fit from a EW. so if it u cant find a leak with engine start, try adjusting ur timing

all the best with that
