Default idle speed

Does anyone know what speed the mx5 engine should idle at. Mine was running quite high until I blocked off the hole for the brake vaccum. Now it seems to be running high again. About 1200 rpm

Has anyone got any ideas??

David

p.s im hoping to go for my first drive tonight (on my private road - of course)

Build cost.... seems to be spending more on tools than car bits at the moment! (they will be handy in the future though).
