I little hint...it is obviously difficult to disconnect, flip, adjust, reconnect the afm, etc. I happened to find that a power screwdriver bit (the magnetic type) with a flathead bit in it fit up under the corner of the AFM without removing it. Worked perfect. I later noticed that the parts houses sell a stubby flathead screwdriver with a knurled wheel for adjusting the idle screw....I would assume my trick works equally well...
good luck..

: : where the hell is it
: On the Air Flow meter... There are actually two screws - if you're standing on the passenger side of the car and you are looking down at the AFM, there is a screw on the Left side of the AFM. This is the idle speed adjustment screw. If you flip over (disconnect everything) the AFM, there is another screw - this is the mixture adjustment screw. Answers the question?
