Idle and Mixture ajdust after Valve adjust

After adjusting my valves this weekend, my idle hunting problem returned. I suspected that the valve adjust had riched my mixture so I leaned out the mixture. That in it self did not help so I reduced the idle speed and the idle hunting problem disappeared. Has anyone run in to this before?

On my SC i had to adjust my mixture and idle speed after big service.
I think it's mostly because of the new filters (Air/fuel/Oil) that shifts the adjustment a little. I had to lean out my mixture about 1/10 of a turn on the mixture screw.
On a carrera the Motronic should do the adjustment automatically, so maybe there's a probelm with one off your sensors, or you idle valve.

As I've discussed this more I think it was due to swaping out my cat for a euro-premuffler, not the valve adjust.
