interesting...
There must be a fair amount to pulsing and gliding perfectly. I found on a site somewhere (wikipedia maybe) that pulse and glide can return upto triple the standard highway MPG when done right according to computer simulations.
I assume to do this you'd need a car with very low drag and low rolling resistance, and switch everything off when the car is in glide mode.
So if I start simple with an injector kill switch for glides, should I always shift to neutral and have to bump start the engine every time? I suspect that on a long journey that wouldn't do the clutch/gearbox etc much good if you have to do it hundreds of times.
