Default Idle screw Cosworth

Sounds easy enough but,

my cossie is trying to idle at 600rpm and obviously eventually cuts out. Can someone tell me or post a quick pis of the location to the idle screw please?

I need to just tweak it a little bit,

thanks

bottom of the throttle body IF it's a 2wd then it has a lock nut that need undoing and then a flat screw driver to adjust the bolt IF a 4x4 then it's just the screw driver needed BUT I BET it will be locked solid and you may have to take the body off and free it up!

directly in the center line of the t/b, under the boost hose...

you can adjust it with the boost hose removed to make it easy

its a brass flathead on the 4x4, about 10mm in diameter.
