I just bought a 1999 Toyota 4Runner 4x4 manual about a month ago. This is my first car/ manual transmission, so bear with me.

I have mastered the manual for the most part, but I have noticed one minor problem. When I am coasting in 5th gear, I can easily pull the stick into neutral without touching the clutch.

I am not sure when the clutch was last replaced, but I hope I dont have to replace it.

Is this anything to worry about? It really doesnt bother me that much, but it doesnt hurt to ask.
