Default Size of pipe to the Septic Tank?

I have a 3" line from under the house. The guy I spoke with that does Septic
Systems says 4" no less.

My run is about 85' from my house to the Septic Tank. I have the 1/4" per
foot Fall from the House to the tank.

Should I upsize the pipe to 4" or just keep the 3"

I don't want my liquids to run from the Solid, so I though that the 3" would
be better?

Thanks!
