Idle speed issue

Yeah, checked the lamba control and also checked the air fuel mixture.
It checked out.
The idle speed was just too low but mind you, it is within spec.
The car shakes a bit at 550 rpm. The motor mounts are in good shape.
I think if one is stuck in traffic here in San Antonio, TX,and it is quite hot here right now +95-98, it takes a toll on the alternator and battery when
running the A/C, radio etc.at such low RPM.
Anyhow, now my idle speed is at 700-750 in gear.
I think the problem may lie with the hot wire that gets dirty.
