84 6 cyl automatic, low idle: need help

So it idles too low in neutral, barely runs in gear when stopped. Runs fine going down the road.
Checked all vacuum lines and replaced several. New plugs, cap & rotor.
Adjusted timing couple of times, no change on the idle speed.
Would like to find the idle adjustment screw but cant find it. Looked and looked.
Throttle linkage is on back side of carb facing the firewall, hard to see (second picture).

Anyone know how to adjust, or ideas ?
