Which car? The idle adjustment screw is on the throttle body.

1) Warm the car to operating temperature.
2) Shut off the car.
3) Disconnect the IACV (Idle Air Control Valve).
4) Restart the car. You may need to press the accelerator. Slowly release until the car idles.
5) Set the idle screw on the throttle body until the car idles at 450 +-50 RPM
6) Shut off the car.
7) Reconnect the IACV.
8) Restart.
9) Check the idle. It should be 750RPM.
10) Clear any CELs for the IACV.

to clear the CEL's take the ecu fuse out or disconnect the battery ground for about 15 minutes
