Base Idle Set Screw. it's the plastic screw on the throttle body. Did you screw the new sensor in to the exact same length as the old one?

oh and now when i started it this morning. smoke covered the whole neighbor hood. enough to make our town cop to stop by. so i checked the oil level and it was dry when i checked it before i left Wednesday. and there is just a tiny little spot of oil on the concrete under it like maybe a spot 6 in. diameter. and it is still idling really weird.
