Or... adjust the nut behind the steering wheel... On my wife's Subaru, which has AC, I toggle the system on and off according to road conditions. Downhill = on. Deceleration in gear = on. But off when accelerating and climbing... quite effective for savings... no costs in parts or labor.

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
