Put the 50% grill block on today.

I must be doing the pulse and glide thing wrong. My mileage went down to 17.3 on the same trip as that personal best pulsing to 60 and slowing down to 45. It was the sweetspot for the lockup converter and deceleration fuel cutoff on my engine.

During the pulse I was accelerating briskly, maybe too fast though. I'll keep trying. It seems thats how a lot of people get a boost to their numbers.
