I appreciate what you are saying. But I should have said I do that when coming up to stop just in case. And if the throw out bearing can't handle that then it needs to be changed anyways. Lol. But I don't understand how a bad throw out bearing could cause expensive damage to the transmission. And the vacuum pump is a good idea too if I didn't weigh 200 pounds and have driven a lot of cars with mechanical brakes before so I have developed a good right leg for breaking. Cause vacuum is only an assist to brakes. So I probably won't put it on. Also would have to draw more amps from the battery which would cause the alternator to run more and cause more of a draw on the engine so it wouldn't be benificial to even coast. Electric vacuum pumps draw a lot of amps. But thank you, I really appreciate everyone's concern for my safety.
