May also depend on type of carb you have but general information is a good place to start.

RE: Tune a carb??
If you tune a carb for milage you lose power. You can only get it so lean on the cruise without sacraficing the AFR at WOT. If you go lean enough for good mileage, then you lose some fuel and don't make as much power. But you can still get decent mileage and power with a carb if everything is set up right
