91 4Runner idle

My 91, 3.0 4WD is idling warm at about 400 rpm. I know from reading threads here and stuff that it should be at 750-800 rpm, but honestly it is idling so smooth and you can't even hear it running, takes off ok with the skinny pedal etc... is there anything I shouls worry about and can I just leave it this low?

I would idle it up to factory specs just for the heck of it. Supposedly at that RPM, it's not going to pick up the oil it needs to keep it lubricated properly.

Good point, I never considered that but makes sense.

Thanks.
