I want to adjust the idle a bit higher on my 1970 Chevelle I rcently bought. I'm not very mechanically inclined, but I'm learning. Where is it located?

Well, I don't know what engine or carb you have but odds are it's on the driver's side of the carb. In the linkage the throttle cable connects to. Should be a screw with a spring below the head, around the threaded part of the screw.

Take a couple pictures of your carburetor, from each front corner of the engine bay so we can see what you're working with.
