My pulse and glides have been helping considerably with my MPG (so far around a 10% increase with engine on clutch in glides). The aveo at 70 mph (majority of my drive) runs at 3200 RPMs. When I push in my clutch during my glide (from 70 down to 55), It drops down to 600 rpms. Did figure out a way last night to do some EOC with the ability to turn my speedo and dash info back on. Should help even more with my MPG. The current gas tank will tell the story tho. I'm only at about a half tank, 210 miles, hovering right at 40-43 MPG, which is up from 36 mpg without P&G.
