just went to adjust the allen screw on the afm (marked it first so i could put it back) and noticed it is wound all the way in SHOULD IT BE LIKE THIS.i had it tuned at a local garage a few weeks ago and he told me it was underfueling so he'd adjusted the mixture. 2 days later i noticed the fuel line was split and leaking pretty badly so i fixed this, now i think its over-fueling and i'm wondering if trying to re-adjust the afm will sort it

Best leave it alone and take it back to the garage. Explain to them that you found a split fuel pipe (they should really have spotted it anyway) and can they re-check and adjust it.
Best not to fiddle with the AFM unless you have the right equpment.

yeah your probably right it just seems odd that its all the way in,and i thought if i move it it will be simple to put back where it was never mind i think i'll go to a different garage next time
