If you have the single switch, and you *can't* get it set up right on the
money (sometimes the adjuster is just shot), err on the side of "running"
mode rather than "idel" mode. You'll burn too much gas at stoplights, but
you won't be trying to pull out with an engine that thinks it's idling
(giving you massive hesitation and/or bucking).
