The engine does not need to be warm or running to adjust the idle mixture screws. Without the perfect screwdriver it's easy to burn yourself if the engine is hot, but it can be done.
2.5 turns out is usually very close, and most of the time a quarter of a turn either way is all that's needed for fine-tuning. If you are having running problems at 2.5 turns out, you need to look elsewhere.
