It is possible, but unlikely. Set it with a Multimeter, or a dual led adjusting thingamabob.

Does the exhaust smell funny too? A bad tank of gas cause this on my 'vert a few months ago... I thought it was water in the fuel, and put some 'DryGas' and fuel injector cleaner in it but that didn't help. Then I thought that one of the cats might be clogged, ('because of the funny exhaust smell) but the problem went away immediately with a fresh tank of gas.... Go figure.
