One is a set screw.



BTW, anyone wanna buy an '87 F-250 with a Banks turboed, factory installed '88 7.3? 5 speed 2 WD, body and bed both rough. Needs lift pump and exhaust work, but it runs just fine.

A set screw holds the screw you're adjusting in place. Look around in the photos, there are a lot of step by steps on this.
