Which figure would provide a finer adjustment for the fuel-air ratio?

Finer/longer the taper the slower the change per twist...
Shorter the taper doesn't take much to twist full open...
Figure B = finer degree of adjustment, presuming threads being equal.
Call me anything you want...just so long as it isn't "late for dinner"
