Maybe also reset the idle to 100rpm higher and do this the proper way by the book so that the IAC can still control the idle. Maybe your tacho is over-reading.

Re tank hose...that's a possibility too as a vacuum line goes to the tank

There is also a "purge valve" that opens above idle and allows vacuum to be applied to the charcoal canister....if the purge valve is sticky it may be open at idle. You check this (I think) by schecking the vac line from manifold to purge valve at idle.

28mm is correct. You need a Gregorys manual!!! PM me your email address and I'll scan the base idle page for you. Just turning the screw upsets other parameters!
