primarily serve? Or are the two idle adjustment screws only for the barrel above each in the carb?

Inboard screw affects only 3-4-5-6. Outboard only 1-2-7-8

I'm assuming this is the same for all years and variations of the straight 8? I just read through the '38 owner's manual and it said the same. It would make sense that Packard wouldn't change it from year to year.
