it's not the yellow arrows it's the 2 nuts right above the throttle wire and rubber thing. My car runs great, gets great mileage so I don't want to screw anything up. I just want to increase the idle so it doesn't stall on me sometimes.

Thanks

There's an idle control screw on top of the throttle body right above where your intake connects.

There should be a plug for the black piece in the picture you posted. With that plug off and the engine running, you can adjust the screw I described above to set your idle where you want it. You should throw a code since that plug was disconnected, but the code will clear itself after you replace the plug.

 

the 2 nuts that you're talking about is there for setting the tension/taking off excess slack for the throttle cable

 

ok thanks, I thought if I tightened it a bit I might be able to increase the idle a tad

 

With that plug off the car will not Idle properly. That is most likely your problem to begin with. I left it unplugged before and had a very low Idle. like around 300 RPM barely running. Once I plugged it back in the problem went away.
BTW: the screw K-Litt is talking about might be covered with a black epoxy like material. It was on mine. You just need to break the epoxy or what ever it is off and adjust it that way.
