If your AFM is faulty, your engine should idle wildly. If not, you probably just need a tune up.

IIRC, the only adjustment on an AFM is to vary the amount of air that gets past that is not measured (there is a bypass adjustment screw). This was set at the factory and rarely needs to be changed. If the AFM itself is faulty and needs to be replaced, the idle should be off, like ProjectE30 said.
