agreed...2.5 turns out on either needle would be way too rich...
one other thing I will say...a very experienced gas engine pilot I know has experienced many times where a brand new engine -- of almost any manufacturer -- needs to have the carb taken apart, cleaned with an appropriate cleaning agent, and then reassembled.
Evidently, small filings from the manufacturing process can get in there and clog the ports in the carburetor.
