Are you able to coast in neutral - engine on?
I had a Taurus for about 4 weeks(yrs ago) and it wouldn't.

Yes I can coast in N engine on, although I make that shift very carefully as I am horrified of damaging my tranny that was rebuilt @ 192k miles due to a destroyed planetary and torque converter. I have over 224k miles currently.
