Setting Idle on 1982 Toyota Corolla

Hey guys, I have a quick question. My friend has an 82 Corolla that can't get through DEQ because it's idling at some insane number like

1200 or so (which is where my bike idles, by the way. And my bike redlines at 11, so...this Corolla has got problems). I need to adjust the idle speed and need to know where the idle adjustment screw is, and what to set the idle at for US models. I found this:

But this deals with non-US models. PLUS, I'd love a pic of exactly where this screw is if anyone has one.

Thanks so much, Dave

Check out a Chilton's in the reference section of your local library. Show have a photo with a nice arrow pointing directly to the screw.
