Had some issues on my idle speed in the past (wasn't able to adjust it) and CO settings where difficult with high CO (over 8%....) after a period of time.
Tip I got was to undo, take out and clead the CO adjuster at the flapper AFM.
Solved all my problems in one go.

Air entering after the AFM is not good as you know. Are the hose and fixings from AFM to plenum still ok?

Next would be the temperature sensor, as often it is an item causing strange things to happen to engine running, or it causes it no not run at all due to overfuelling...
