I have recently bought an Efini RX7. It\'s currently being registered on a k plate. This is my first RX. I have noticed on tick over the car idles at 1100 - 1200 rpm and even when the car reaches temperature there is no change in idle. Has anyone got any ideas and suggestions?

Mine always idled at about 850 - should I be turning the screw to get it back to 750ish then? Had it all serviced and looked at more than once and never a comment or adjustment made?! :confused:
