power adjustment screw

Hey guy's whats the trick to getting to and making the power adjustment screw move.Tinkered with it 2 years ago and moved it half a turn.Now with new injectors I want to move it more!Never got all of the lock collar off and messed with it some today.It won't buge.Need to remove it etc and get rest of coller off but how in h--do you get to that point and how in the heck once out get it back in.Any tricks or suggestions?

I guess i should also say that maybe it dosen't need moving,I installed new Bully Dog industrial injectors the other day and truck pulls hard now.Big differance then before.Idle speed actually went down some?pulls 20psi of boost max in a flash from hardly rolling to 80mph and top egt is 950.It dosen't smoke and to me pulls strong and smooth from off idle to 80.(unloaded)I know it can make more boost etc.What to do next??Thanks guy's.
