1/4 turn isn't much, I'd say tinker more, but better to just wait for 
your friend with the harness and measure the DPR current.

Today I am meeting up with a fellow which has the proper tuning harness needed for the DPR to be tuned with a voltmeter. This still may very well be a static adjustment issue, though the previous owner had said adjusting rich did help the start problem, it never fully cured it. I'm hoping he had a vacuum leak on top of the adjustment too lean causing this issue.
