I need advice after fix

Ok the other day I was driving and when I got home my T2 was idling lumpy. I adjusted my apexi afc up to get more fuel at idle and it idles fine. I am just wondering if this will/can cause any damage?
Thanks,
Josh

Sometimes running too rich can damage your cats. But, I wouldn't worry about it.

Running rich isn't that bad. You have smellier exhaust, and may clog your cats. Your exhaust will also be more visible. But it won't do anything like running lean will. At worst you'll empty your pocket from filling up the tank (if you don't already).

Same problem again but there doesnt seem to be a simple fuel fix.

It idles at 200 rpms! It sounds damn near like a mustang!! It is pissing me off.

It runs good when I am out driving around but when I am stopped it seems like it will stall.

Also I just replaced my oil and plugs!
I am going to check my vaccum lines and hopefully I will find the problem but if anyone has any ideas it would be greatly appreciated.
