So... Did you save enough money from the amount of gasoline saved to justify the expense of the engine damage?

Obviously not in this case, but if you could commodify the lowered emissions, then it would depend on that calculation. The carb folks here are a dwindling breed so you won't see a lot of this problem.
Not everything we do here has to pay for itself.
I'm quite happy to pay for a used starter if mine ever dies from EOC and I am confident that if it does quit, by that time it will have paid for itself.
Generally speaking a hypermiled car should actually last longer due to better care and attention and careful driving.
My personal savings to date? $625
