Zip, zilch, nadda.  The plate is above the rest position at idle.  I wouldn't adjust it unless you are having hard-start issues
(i.e. plate so low that air is getting around it).

Off the wall question - have you swapped out plugs lately?  Try throwing some copper plugs in there.  Oddly enough, I find that the
cheaper plugs, while having a shorter lifetime, do produce more power.  It is also possible you got a batch of semi-bad gas.
