2nd Generation 87' camry w/high idle

Hi guys. I have a 87 camry and it idles rather high. The screw by the butterfly is all the way in and I don't know where to put the adjuster screw at for the air fuel (i'm guessing that is what it is on the passenger side of the intake).

not to be a post whore but is also has very little power from a stop, especially with the a/c on. With the a/c off it is ok but once you turn it on it has no takeoff until it gets to about 3000 rpm.

Clean your idle air controller and throttle body. you idle controlled mainly by the IAC, not the idle screw.

Get a Haynes manual and research it yourself.
