vaccume modulator adjustment tips

I just bought a new vaccume modulator from autozone today and when I took it out of the box I noticed it has an allen screw on the end.Is this for adjustment like a modulator on a chevy 350 turbo trans?I looked in my repair manual and their wasnt anything about any kind of adjustment.So if this is for adjustments are there any tips to adjusting it?

Thanks,
Tim

If I recall correctly, install it and see how it shifts. Too hard or soft can be adjusted with a couple of turns.

It is a 1992 mazda navajo.Which translates into a ford explorer sport with the mazda name on it.I was asking if it adjusts the same as a chevy modulator.Which would mean the tighter the screw goes the harder it shifts.Or is it the looser the screw the harder the shift?

thanks,
Tim
