Is this what you mean, or is it entirely different? When you're stationary, out of gear, there should be no difference with the clutch lever in or out.
When I set the idle it sounds perfect. After a few minutes it just speeds up to about triple the correct idle speed without me touching anything.Then I turn off the ignition and restart and it's ok again.
