My idle adjuster is frozen. Tried to turn the screw with a screw driver while holding the knurled portion with a vise clamp and started stripping the screw head... Is there a way I can adjust the idle by the throttle body?

Idle Adjuster Froze

I maybe reading your description of procedure wrong, but the knurled knob is what turns. Sounds like you were trying to turn the screw that holds the knurled knob on.
I have my moments, not often but they do happen occasionally. I did have to read it more than once.
Well that could be it. I was trying to turn the screw, not the knurled knob. I will give it another shot. The service manual doesn't tell you much besides "turn the adjuster". Which direction raises the idle? clockwise or counter-clockwise?
Well i feel dumb.... just a little turn got the idle up to 1100 again. Thanks for the help.
Not a problem.

It's the simple things that sometimes get you.
