Old Mechanic- thanks, I have been trying to coast in neutral where I can. It is a fine art, but I am learning. It is challenging to coast below the speed limit with traffic behind you. My car is an automatic 4 speed/ overdrive. Now that I adjusted the shift linkage it feels like it holds in overdrive at a lower speed. I am interested in learning more about torque converter lockup controls. I suspect the torque converter lockup disengages often as I mainly stay under 50 mph in my commute. I will know more after I install my tach.
