Could also be that the throttle valves are not closing completely. The throttle linkage needs a little bit of slack at idle to allow the idle adjusters to control the last bit of travel.

And if the throttle valve discs are not centered properly, or the shafts are not quite centered (worn and sagging) then one edge will hit the wall of the carb body and leave the other side gapped open.
