Im about ready to start my 914 for the first time and break in the motor. I have a set of 40 idfs on there that im guessing are out of adjustment. How many turns out should I set the needles at to get it to fire? I know I have to tune it during break in, but Im just trying to get it to start up now. Hints? Thanks.

Edit: i should have clarified. This is a 2056, dual 40 idfs, raby split duration cam.
