My damn idle drops to 450rpm fucking up my dash because it flickers. Jesus Christ.

Oil light flickering symbolizing oil pump or oil level

The tach essentially starts at 500 rpm (lowest thick mark is zero, next thick mark is 500, then small marks for 600, 700, 800, 900; then thick mark at 1000); 450 rpm wouldn't register on the tach so I think what you're seeing is about 700 rpm which is where it should be (unless you're using something external to actually measure the rpm). The light is an indication of low oil pressure. If your oil level is low, fill it, then see if it stays off. If it is full and flickers, then either your oil pressure is low or the pressure switch is bad.
