I saw the same thing when I hooked up mine. Every time you push in the clutch you get great mileage, I first thought "why not spend more time there?". But like Euromodder stated, you'll use all your fuel savings taking longer to accelerate to speed. Coasting downhill with my clutch in gets me around 120 - 150 mpg @ 55 - 65 mph. Downshifting is giving me an infinite reading. Does anyone know if the Ford Ranger cuts fuel when decelerating in gear or if this reading could be bogus?
