engine off, in gear, on a MT?
Could more people chime in on this point raised in this thread about engine off coasting in gear on manual transmissions? Can a manual transmission car with an injector cut-off switch can safely coast-down in gear with the injectors off? With the car on, would such a scenario mean alt charging but no fuel? Wouldn't it be damaging to the engine and/or transmission? Would lubricants be circulating?
