I have ntoiced that when standing in traffic jams or lights, the rpms go often below 300...
What is the problem, and how do I fix it?

If I had my shop manual with me I'd look it up for you but its at home.

Adjusting the idle speed won't do a thing. The low idle speed is an indication of another problem, possibly a vacuum leak.
