Depends on what year the car is. 76-78 models (1bbl) have an adjustment on the lower front of the carb. 79-80 models have a knockout plug on the lower-left base plate that can be adjusted and 81-87 are computer controlled via the electrical plug on the top of the unit. 81-87 also have the same knockout plate in the base plate as the 79-80's but it won't affect much.
