if the arm is not reaching the plate at all then which way do you adjust the screw? in or out?

 

I think from the photos, you would need to back the screw out to tilt the lever back (up) to touch the plate.

 

Make sure the shutdown solenoid is pulled up into the run position then give it full throttle. Engine off of course.
The arm should then move forward enough to hit the plate.
