I tried this today. It was set at, or had drifted to 4500rpm!! Way out! Tricky getting it to stay at the setting you've set as doing the bolt up again seems to affect the setting as the adjustments needed are so tiny to change it. The extra pressure on the bolt seemed to be back it off slightly. By luck I managed to set it at about 1600rpm. Very short test ride and it felt smoother on the throttle but the engine felt lumpy. Much less able to pull in the low gears, almost like it was going to stall unless I shifted up quite quickly. Very different to normal where I can stay in 1st up to something like 40mph if needed (not that I do)!
So adjusted it again using the hit and miss, do up the bolt, see what it says, undo and redo until it's set around something I'm happy to try method, and eventually got it at about 2100rpm. Which is where I've left it for today. I'll test ride again tomorrow.
Edit :this is on a K8 so there's only the one bolt to undo.
