my idle is super high

ok i my tps and maf died so i put 'new' ones that i got from cars that were at the wreckers. they tested good on my car a few months ago so i kept them incase mine died..

now when i start my car the rpm shoots up to 1600 for like 1/2 hour if its idleing and when the car is warm after driving its around 1000. i looked at the page where it says you gotta turn a torx on the throttle body to adjust the idle with iac unplugged and aldl jumpered off but i cant find my torx on the side of the tb.
anyone have pics? or can tell me how to set my idle?

Right there, BTW my engine (when i had the 2.8) did the same thing untill i adjusted the iac with the adl jumpped iirc.

ok i found the screw, and i did everyhting in the directions... and it worked for like 15 minutes. i shut the car off and turned it back on and its idleing at 1700 now.

i mean the screw cant really go much lower.

what am i doing wrong?

A and B are the top row most left jumpers right?

my car is noisy and i want the idle to be correct.. and not 1700
