When I had Olaf-the-2 (the blue 244 photographed MUCH further up this thread) its idle varied between a sweet-as-a-nut 500 rpm and a lumpy 1100 after a run from Renfrew to Glasgow (say 15 miles) for no apparent reason; adjusting the idle screw made no difference, the car seemed to decide of its own volition that today's idle speed would be - whatever I want it to be!

The 1981 edition of the Haynes manual (ISBN 0 85696 591 X) has a section in the supplement about setting up the CDSU. Once I've sorted out resizing/uploading I'll post the images/link.
