Forgot to list.

I believe that injector pump still pump fuel if you off pedal.

I would put shift in neutral when stoplight so it coast like 1-2 miles from 45 mph to 25 mph. Let rpm at idle.

That how I got 20 mpg in city. I have hard time believe those people say they only get 10-16 mpg out IDI with 5 speed.

Have you try coast? Like you drive 45 mph and there stop sign or light change red then try coast to avoid use sudden brake.

Example bad driver waste gas. Light change RED or stop sign but driver still drive 45 mph until it 40 feet close then SLAM BRAKE HARDER. No coast.
