[Peugeot-L] '88 turbo auto idle

I hope there is a simple answer but--- How do I lower the idle on my turbo from the galloping 12-1400 rpm that it is now? I see a simple stop screw (1/4",white steel?) with locknut set up as part of the throttle but have the feeling it isnt that simple. Thought I'd ask first.

I don't know much about the history of the car or how it got that way etc.

Also, does the ABS system on these cars fail in a mode where you have braking underway in normal driving BUT would likely not work in a panic stop? I have the feeling the pedal isnt what it should be and both branke and ABS light blink on and off periodically (is my head is in the sand on this one...?)

The Good News:I was just told by the local legendary Pug shop that my 86 was the best example of a 505 they'd seen! Hooray. Too bad I got taken to the cleaners along with the good news.....

Thanks in advance on the idle gossip
