Alright, makes sense.
Every once in a while I catch myself not giving enough gas when starting
from stop. I can make the light come on that way. Also when coming to a
stop if I don't engage the clutch. In both cases the RPMs drop below
idle. Hopefully doing this won't cause too much damage.
Cheers,
