I wouldn't think pulse&glide is that good for a diesel since a diesel usually becomes extremely efficient under constant RPM (and pressure). I have achieved my best MPG by staying in the "sweet spot" in 6th gear.

If I should pulse & glide my little 1.4 (which has push-button ignition, so it takes an additional 3 seconds to turn off at speed), then what would you guys recommend?

I can do some experiments where I simply press the clutch to "glide" and tell you how it goes.
