I'm in agreement with Will - you set the idle when the car is fully warm. So, when the idle is low as you say after the car is warmed up, THAT's when you set the idle. Open the bleed screw to 900 rpm. Now, as it cools down, what do you see? If the idle goes up to something like 1000 to 1100 rpm, then that's OK. If it goes up to 2K, that's a problem, and you need to go through the whole system (mechanical/ignition/fuel) to pin down the causes. Check my web page for information about idle stability and how to address it.
