You must be driving a Cali 7, because I dont' think many of the others have caps on the screw.
Unfortunately, those caps are designed so that the home mechanic can't take them off without severely tampering with the cap, which the smog ***** will have a fit over.
You have to take it to a local smog mechanic shop and have them take it off and adjust for you. They'll adjust it with the car on the smog machine, so that you aren't making your car illegal with the adjustments.
If it's running okay, don't worry about it.

You take the vac lines off with some pliers. Grab, twist pull. Be very careful becuase they are quiet old. The crap your taking about over that screw will just scap off. Mine did not have a cap, it was a factory goo.
