Throttle body adjustment screw/locknut

[voodoogsx]

First off, I'm curious as to if there is any information on on what or how to adjust the "stopper"(?) screw/locknut that stops the return motion of the butterfly valve on the throttle body. I included a pic so as to show what I'm talking about.

Second question, and more importantly, does anyone know the thread pitch and size of said screw? I would prefer to hit autozone/autoparts store or maybe even osh as opposed to hitting the mitsu dealer for this little part.

I was playing around with the adjustment of that screw as I had some work done on the tb, and apparently didnt' tighten the lock nut enough, so now I've lost it..
It's now binding if I take my foot of the gas too fast not to mention I think it's throwing my idle off a bit.

TIA on any help I can get on this!

I fixed him up with a replacement screw & locknut.
Also, the screw is adjusted correctly when there's mimimal throttle plate gap and it doesn't stick when closed.
