Adjusting idle on a D-Jet M110

Does anyone know where the engine idle screw is on a D-Jet 280CE? I'm trying to set the timing and when I back it to zero tdc, the engine speed gets up to about 1600 RPM.

Im pretty sure the idle adjustment screw is on the throttle body. Been a while since i have done anything on a d-jet car. Let me take a look at some of the manuals to make sure.

I think that is for k-jet, not d-jet. That's what my idle speed adjustment looks like on my 79 280CE...
