I’ve noticed low idle and a bit of stumbling at stop lights lately.

I’m thinking low idle might not let the ecu know to disengage the starter - does this make sense ?
Did the spark plug replacement fix the issue?

Just got the plugs in. It’s running better and idling higher but I still have to blip the throttle to get the starter to disengage.

Update:

Better fuel and new plugs and it starts like it should!

I’m thinking it just took the ecu reset a long time to learn with old plugs and it being around 5-10F outside. It’s definitely idling higher at start up which probably makes the starter disengage.
