I had the same problem when I cleaned mine a few years ago. I couldn't get that screw out. I tried a few different methods, and then gave up out of fear of stripping or damaging the threads.

It always bugged me that I couldn't get that area clean. And I sometimes wondered if it had anything to do with an idle that at times wouldn't drop to where it should be.
