K-Jet Idle Adjustment 1981

1981 non-Turbo K-Jet. I have the car running after installing a new breather box, injector seals, relocating the flame trap and cleaning up everything within reach. As before the repair when I bought the car, it idles very fast, even when fully warmed up. I'm guessing it idles about 1400 rpm's. I'd love to fix it myself. Can anyone help with this? I'm new at this but willing to take time to learn the correct way to do things.
