Do it.
The accelerating is normal for the gearbox. If you're proficient with a manual, you'll be just fine with gliding in neutral.
When I started hypermiling I was in a 20 mpg car that I had been getting 22 mpg out of. I went up to 28 on my first tank. The car had 160,XXX miles on it when I started this, and 207,XXX when I traded it in on my Honda. Original clutch. I've put over 125,000 miles on the Honda so far, on its original clutch.
And welcome!
