If you look at the throttle body from the front, their is an idle adjustment screw on the right hand side, adjust to suit 
Think you do it when the car has warmed up, might be wrong tho!

The car should idle when cold at roughly the same RPM as when hot, if it starts to hunt and i quote
"konk out" when its hot then you probably have an air leak somewhere, or mixture settings are low.
