The main idle air-bleed is on top of the intake plenum. There might be a rubber plug over it. The hard idle screw is on the linkage.

There's a whole procedure to set up idle including having the TPS adjusted beforehand. The FSM is invaluable with these things and is readily available online.

Cheers
