I asked the local speed shop owner/engineer this question...he said that I'd get better mpgs by depressing my clutch pedal when I coast since that prevents more transmission parts from spinning!? On my Geo I notice that the engine rpm raises nearly by 100 rpm when I coast in gear with the clutch depressed compared to neutral!
