You have a carb like this and yes Counter Clockwise like unscrewing a screw. Alleyoop

It the idle bounces up and down drastically it is to LEAN it needs more fuel so you have to turn the Fuel Ratio Mixture Screw Counter Clockwise to feed it more fuel. Alleyoop

Well take the plug out and do the finger compression test. At least that will let you know if it has descent compression IF it lifts your finger off the hole. Now remember you need to hold the throttle wide open doing the test so it sucks in as much air as possible otherwise the test will show low compression. Also if you can take a short Video of you trying to start it, if it is loosing compression you normally can hear the difference has a wush sound to them air escaping. But I would still question your timing setup, reason is at first you could not turn it past a point which means it was hitting on something and binding. And now you are saying it dosen't appear to hang up at all which means no compression or very little. Did you turn the flywheel to align the timing mark at the "T" and THEN loosen the Valve cover and Cam and moved the cam and chain WITHOUT having the FLYWHEEL move to this position? Alleyoop CAM SPROCKET ALIGNMENT when Flywheel marker is pointing to the "T" :

You MUST have the Air Filter and Air Box connected to the Carb OTHERWISE it is impossible to adjust the fuel ratio mixture on the carb.
So The first thing is connect the Air Tubing and Air box up to the carb Then it will act much different when you adjust the fuel mixture screw. Alleyoop

WOW!! Great Find man that is weird and who would of thought of anything like that causing loss of compression. Alleyoop

There SHOULD BE A "T" before the "F" like this but that is at least close. So at this point stick a screwdriver down the plug hole and move it a little so you can tell when the screwdriver is out the farthest and that should be your TOP DEAD CENTER point and remember the cam lobes should NOT be anywhere near the rockers flat part. The Flat parts of the rockers should be OFF the HIGH LOBES of the CAM. Alleyoop

There is a "T" it is very faint and hard to see. Many have a hard time spotting it but it is there. A tip to know when it is CLOSE is stick a screwdriver in the spark plug hole and watch it when the screwdriver gets pushed out then look for the "T". Now you could be 180 degrees at this point if you cannot see it so rotate it again and when the screwdriver comes out again look for the "T".
** VERY IMPORTANT ** make sure the valve adjusters are loose so when you put the valve cover on there is no pressure on the valve stems.

Make sure the adjusters are loose and that you can move them by hand back and forth.

Then something is binding DO NOT START it until you can turn the motor over by hand and then on the compression stroke you can feel it and with your hand you should be able to turn it through the compression stroke and then it should be easy as pie until the next compression stroke. Alleyoop

To find out if it is just compression, put the valve Assembly on and LEAVE the spark plug out and see if you can turn it over. It should turn over easy through the compression stroke. If it still binds then something is not right. CHECK your timing, Bring the Piston up to top dead center CHECK the timing mark on the Flywheel and Check the Alignment of the CAM. At this point Both Valves shout be closed, Cam Lobes to the side or down and away from the rockers if they were there. Alleyoop
