The thought is that adjusting the base idle is covering up another issue.


Glad to see it was straightforward and presumably set on the tacho as opposed roverguage? Always worth checking plug condition from time to time, but its not surprising to see idle settings may have been adjusted on 20-30 yr old car engines.
