Bench sync on assembly (that's often very close.) Then, adjust the fuel-air mixture. Then, sync with gauges.
The first step should always be to read the appropriate section in the FSM. When you do that you don't usually need to ask about the other steps.

So OP wasnt "lazy" just lookin for knowledge on the ground (everyman's knowledge)
