Default Solex 4A1...how to adjust idle?....way too high

Greetings.

New poster here! I am looking for help in how to adjust the idle on the Solex 4A1 carb.
I have a 1975 280...and am just beginning restoration. However, my idle is way too high. I tinkered around but was unable to find the idle control.
I believe the Choke is disconnector is stuck on...dont know.
I am a woman that has little experience, but lots of willingness to learn. Please help.

The idle adjusting screw should near the base of the vacuum regulator unit.
