I also do this often at long lights. But then I wonder while sitting there (sometimes sitting in the cold, without the benefit of having the heater warming me in winter): how much money have I saved in unspent fuel as compared to this recurrent wear on my starter? I've changed the starter on my car twice over many years, and replacing it isn't an easy task. Actually it's a b---h.
Maybe this routine balances out at best. Maybe I am just breaking even. If I'm only breaking even, I ask myself
what's the point of doing it?
