The dial is on the side of the jug near the front of the engine. It is a round button-knob about the size of a quarter and has a small screw on each side. Just grab that b*tch and give it a little turn.

Yup, loosen 2 screws a bit and turn the dial until you find a position where you like the power.

They hold the pv in place, there is only a o ring in the cap, you can get a air leak and lean out your motor. There is no way they should have been that tight.

Ez outs are not that easy to work with if the stud is seized in there. Those bolts are 5-6 mm? I'd hit it with pb blaster and let it sit if going that route.

If you know someone with a tig or mig welder it's often easier to weld a sharpened bolt to it, the heat helps loosen it up and it will come right out

Mine were tight like that. Striped right away. I had to drill and use a easy out to get them out. You can say I replaced them with bolt from local hardware store.
