88) Cycle the A/C if you have to use it
If you have to use the air conditioner, set the air flow to recirculate and manually turn the A/C on and off as needed. For greater efficiency, switch it on when under light engine loads or deceleration fuel cut off and off when under moderate/heavy loads. (Note: some newer vehicles do this automatically.)

I was rereading the 100+ Hypermiling Tips to freshen up on my tactics and realized that I was doing it wrong! But I started to cycle the AC on when I'm on my Pulse phase and cycling off on my Glides. I tried it vice versa and realized that there was a substantial lose in instant MPG during my glides. So I decided that I'll use more gas during the pulses, although I do feel a distinct lack of power when doing this.

So I will be actually doing a trip log from home to work and vice versa alternating styles and seeing what works better.
