    Em, the two you're referring to are Idle Mixture Screws, used to adjust the Fuel/Air Ratio at idle. If everything's right those can be adjusted to the mid-point between the lean rpm decrease point and the rich rpm decrease point, or even better adjusted for max vacuum. The one's Charlie is talking about are the ones you & I traced in the manual for normal idle speed and the fast idle speed with choke engaged, the one that rides the cam hooked to the choke plate by linkage.
