Had this image lying in my phone from agoodfriend thread.
At No.1 it's accelerator pump.
No.2 it's Dashpot adjustment screw.
No.3 it's Dashpot itself.
No.4 is the slow release valve for Dashpot check if the vacuum pipe of that is connected at proper place without vacuum that will not work (as you explained that IDLE increases when you tighten the adjustment screw) and also check the direction of slow release valve if slow release valve is connected in opposite direction then the Dashpot would not function.
