Those adjustment screws are not like any other. The plastic stop is threaded. As long as you can put the wheel in against both stops and the wheel is centered (look for equal spacing between the rim and chain stays) they you're good to go. If not, you'll have to clamp down on the quick release pretty good so it doesn't slip.
Good info, thanks.
I saw the suggestions to clean the chrome and the small parts with a little rust on them - how is best to clean the rust off the tubes of the frame? I can't exactly soak it
