Usually not much if any. If the idle is high it usually indicates a vacuum leak or possibly the throttle plate is sticking, binding, worn throttle shaft. The idle air control valve controls your idle air as well and it may be dirty, sticking or defective. I would check for any cracks in the vac hoses as well which would cause an unmetered air leak.

It is controlled by the computer and is not adjustable. If it is so slow that the engine wom't idle the idle control solonoid needs cleaning. It is attached tothe throtle body and clean it and where it mounts with carb cleaner. Also clean the inside of the throtle body where the throtle plate is as a carbon ring forms there.

to adjust idle on 2000 impala....Locate the accelerator cable on the throttle body.Have someone push down on the accelerator pedel while you observe the throtle body cable movements.You will notice a stop screw on the throtle body butterfly where it comes to rest against the throtle body.Turn the screw clockwise for more rpm, turn the screw counter clockwise for less rpm.
