Ok having a senior moment. Is it called a coast down idle when you coast with clutch in but engine slowly drops idle? OBD I system, can this be changed? Even fully warmed up idle only drops to about 850 where if not rolling and after about 30 seconds it will drop to about 600. I know it is there for ease in engaging the clutch again but I can handle that.
