That looks like an idle adjustment screw. Is that right?
If so, it should be set to the correct idle speed, usually around 750-850 RPMs.

A screw that opens or allows the throttle plate to close is the idle adjustment screw. The other screw you refer to may be an air compensator or perhap the throttle position sensor. I'm really not sure.
Got pictures?

Well, I really thiink that what you have adjusted is an air compensator of some kind.
Can anyone else shed some light on this subject... someone with more hands on w/a '97 626?
