Mr. Maverick
Lets do as we said in Cuba, "let us go by parts, like Jack the ripper" (just joking)
YOUR COMMENT***When you say the exhaust smells like a lot of gasoline, we know that the idle mixture has too much fuel. This might be caused by fuel getting into the idle air stream by some path other than the idle circuit.***
MY COMMENT---I totally agree with that----
***. Idle jet. This would be an internal piece with a small hole to pass fuel for the idle circuit. The idle jet would be submerged in fuel in the fuel bowl. It seems odd, with your overly rich idle, that you'd have to leave the idle jet only partially screwed in since that would leak additional fuel around the jet. I haven't found a picture of the idle jet.***
---I thought that this was the idle jet...
But,
It is not submerged in fuel. I have read frenchs called it the screw mixture quality screw. It is suposed to came factory preset.
THIS is the screw that, if I partially screw out the idle gets better. This screw has a small hole at the bottom and bigger holes at each side. Once it is setted at the desired position I lock it with woman nail painting to prevent its movement.----
***1. Fast Idle screw. This screw adjust the additional throttle plate opening when choke is on. Think you're right to ignore this one till hot idle is fixed.***
---I agree with this---
***2. Idle mixture screw. See the picture on page 18 in the online manual you found.
http://www.peugeot205.pl/pdf/p205haynes.pdf This screw allows more or less FUEL (not air) into the idle mixture. Your note below makes me wonder if you think that's adjusting the amount of air in the idle mixture. It might help if you looked down into the carb with the engine is running. Fuel should be in very small (atomized) mist, not big drops you can see. The idle mixture screw would mate with a SEAT, not the idle jet, in any carb I've seen. The seat is probably replaceable and would screw in. Is this the piece you're leaving not screwed all the way in?***
---I thought that the idle mixture screw adjusted air, more air into = less gasoline, and actually if I turn it all way in the idle is more erratic, in my opinion richer...but anyway it adjust the quantity of gas in the idle...
If I look into the carb there is atomized gas, not drops.
No I leave this screw like 2.5 turns out.-----
****3. Idle speed screw. See page 17 in the online manual. 28.4a Typical idle speed adjusting screw

---OK----
We use in Cuba recently an app called IMO. Unfortunately we can't use skype in Cuba.
If you agree a moment in the weekend and you install in your smartphone IMO you can add my contact +5354261448 so we can talk and even video chat.
Is that OK to you?
The moment is important because as I don't have an active connection on my mobile, I need to go to a park to get connected through a wifi so I need to know when.
