As long as the engine is running the primary pump in the transmission is providing lubrication. Two ears on the back of the torque converter slide into slots in the pump and drive the pump to produce pressure.
Is that the same as a Corolla? Sold under the GEO name.
Coasting in neutral with the engine idling means you are using about .2 gallons per hour of fuel, possibly lower. At 50 MPH that means you are getting 250 MPG coasting in neutral, since you could theoretically coast 250 miles and use 1 gallon of fuel. That can really improve your overall mileage quickly if you have good opportunities to coast without disrupting the flow of traffic around you.
