Throttle Body Cleaning / Idle Speed Now Higher

Hello,

I recently cleaned the throttle body of my 1992 Mazda 626 with a 2.2 5 speed manual engine with 150000 miles. I did not remove it from the engine. I merely used a can of carb cleaner and a rag to clean the throttle plates. The idle is now much smoother BUT the idle is at about 1400 RPMs. I opened the throttle plates by using the lever on the side. I did not move anything out of adjustment (that I know of). Can someone advise me what I may have done and maybe how to remedy this? Thanks in advance for any input.....

Best regards,
Dave

Just lower the idle with the adjust screw.

If it were that easy to just turn a screw I would of......but on my Mazda 626 that is NOT possible. Anyone else have any helpful info?
