Throttle Stop Screw Stuck

Throttle Stop Screw Stuck
Hi I have an issue with my 91' Accord. When I let go of the gas the butterfly catches and I have to slam the pedal to get it to move again. I looked and noticed that the throttle stop screw is away from the throttle. I tried to adjust it back up so the pedal is good, but it won't budge. It is almost seized in, the same thing with my Idle Air Screw. How can I get these to loosen up, I've tried wd40 and a little bit of heat, but still nothing.

yes, I just jerry rigged it so it would't catch onto itself, I ended up finding and piece of plastic that fits perfectly onto the stop screw and pushes the throttle just enough so it won't stick, but doesn't accelerate.

sounds super safe - great job!

Don't think the "stop" is adjustable.........how much slack is in the cable?
I can't remember if you have a service manual or not? IMO, you've been beat up enough on other sites, I will try to help where I can.
If you don't have a service manual let me know and I can link you to a few choices...not the best but of some help.
Something like a vac cap over the top of the "stop" should be fine.....I think that is what the OE set up is like? Been a while.

Thanks for the help, Im not sure if it is adjustable either, but will my set up work for now? It works good and is removable if need be.
Yes I do have a manual,
The throttle cable is adjusted correct I actually had to loosen it because it had no free play and made the throttle stay open a little so it would idle at 1000.

According to the manual, see pic, the stop is not adjustable.
If I remember, hint to remind me as I'm old and forget things, I'll send you a PM about something I've seen some do that might have led to this issue.
