picks didn't help me with my search for the elusive idle adjustment screw. you cant really see it looking down at the carb anyway. what you need is a mirror, a flashlight, and band aids for your knuckles.

Idle speed and idle mix screws. Red one is mixture, yellow one is idle speed. Early models had 2 screws for mixture, one is an air screw and one a fuel screw. This later model carb has only a fuel screw, the air jet is fixed. BTW if your carb doesnt have a mix screw but a funny bullet shaped thingie, then it still has the factory "this is an adjustment you dont need to **** with you yankee devil" tamper proof cover on it. See the Haynes or Mazda shop manual on removal, or just pry it off like I do.

Damn... my school webspace is offline for the summer, or I would have posted a pic from a previous (now dead) thread.
It's a bitch to find if you don't take the air filter bonnet off, so do yourself a favour, and take it off :P
