After you have the carb on the bench... find the mixture screw. Carefully thread the screw IN (clockwise) until gently tight... while counting the # of turns. Write down this # (i.e. 1-1/2 turns, etc.). You will want to remove this screw for carb cleaning.

Now after carb clean/rebuild... when you put the mixture screw back in... thread all the way in to gently tight... and back it out the # of turns you wrote down... to put it where it was originally. If you need more fuel... turn out another 1/4 turn. Less fuel... turn in 1/4. You get the idea.

Cheers!
