DE-Trac,
I disagree with just adjusting the idle speed for the following reasons.
If the engine has been running fine for some time and suddenly developes a rough or slow idle, it indicates that there is a problem usually related to a dirty IAC, dirty intake, or accumilation of carbon (dirt) just behind the throttle plates in the throttlebody or intake. It can also be caused by some exhaust gas getting past the EGR valve and intering the intake airstream during idle. It can even be caused by a cracked or leaking vacuum hose.
The problem needs to be diagnosed and the offended problem corrected. The idle adjuster screw is designed for fine tuning the idle speed after the throttlebody had been removed or linkage dettached. Simply cleaning the IAC, intake and/or throttlebody will insure there are not causing a problem.
If you do not diagnose and correct the problem before you start changing the idle adjuster screw, you are only covering up the real problem and later, it will come back to bite you.
If you have a brand new Sport Trac that idles rough, you should take it back to the dealer to fix. If it's not a bad IAC they will probably just adjust the idle adjuster screw, which is the appropriate action if all the other components are working correctly.
