ok im assumeing its a turbo2.... the screw is located behind/underneath the top mount IC. you can get to it with a long skinny flathead screwdriver right on the throttle arm.. its small. counter clockwise will slow the idle down, clockwise will increase. you can adjust it while the car is running, just be carefull of loose clothing etc around your belts and such....

^^ He's right. Start small, very small. And be sure to actuate the throttle cable a few times in between adjustments. Helps make sure everything settles correctly after you move the screw. Sometimes all the gunk and aged springs might not respond immediately to the adjustment and it can be confusing trying to figure out why the throttle is way high or way low.
