Anyone has any mpg gains by doing this? ...I am trying to see if it really is worth it; If i gain only 1mpg I wount go through the trouble but if its something like 3-4mpg then of course...
July 1980 Popular Science,page 70:"Stop-go fuel saver",by Zemco Corp.,San Ramon,California.Tested on EPA Urban Cycle,the device(which does as you describe) improves mpg by 7.5%.
