No picture, but look at your carb from the left side of the quad. The idle screw is mounted on a bracket which hangs down to the lower left side of the carb. It is a flathead type screw which you can turn with your fingers also. You'll know you have the right one if there is a black tube coming of the back of it.

If your sitting on the quad look on the left side of the carb. There is a little knob with a small cable going to the catb. Thats it.
