How to adjust retard?

I know that the W124 retard is adjustable. I would like to know how to adjust it. the guys that did smog test messed with it so it would pass smog. I would like to re adjust it so i can get my power back.

Same here, I would like to know as well. Mine idles at 500 rpm at Drive or Reverse, and it hesitates a little bit when I take off. If anyone has any answers, please help us out.
Thanks in advance.
