EE-22 and 23 fuel level is set the same way, car running and top off the carburetor - sounds a little odd but it's a real, dynamic measurement and I've never had reason to question it.

Affix a vacuum gauge to your intake manifold to set the idle mixture (after warm-up and at correct idle speed) to the give the highest vacuum at the leanest (innermost) setting. Usually I begin to close them off one at a time until the engine begins to falter (and vacuum drops), then gradually turn them out (richer) and watch the vacuum slowly rise. When it ceases rising, I turn back in (leaner) about 1/4 turn or less. Do one first, the the other, then back to the first for a final check.
