put the trim in the center position, take the sevo arm off the steering servo, put it back on as close to the tires being centered and even as possible, try it out and adjust as needed with the trim knob.

you mean turning in, leaning the engine. Yes it can ruin the engine if its too lean (turned it) as long as you have a trail of smoke you are usually ok but its always good to check your temps.
