Thanks, that's pretty much what I'm thinking. Now that I lowered the idle I don't take off or creep forwards/backwards without using the gas anymore, I always bring the RPM up to 800+ before letting the clutch out. I'm not sure taking off from low idle without bringing the RPM up is really "lugging", but it doesn't seem to like it so I don't do it.
