Not familiar with that tool; but it can be set by the idle stop screw (often security head torx). Usally it is advisable to see if other problems are affecting idle speed first.

If the flash is keeping it higher, resetting the screw may not work - the PCM may just call for more air from the IAC. If you want to try it anyway, I was able to set mine higher to compensate for a larger TB from a maual tranny donor by grabbing the threads on the backside of the screw with a pair of needlenose. Don't need the special tool that way...

sorry for the bump, trying to get rid of the image.
If it doesn't fit, force it. If it breaks...well...it needed to be replaced anyway.
