Not quite ready to write the definite guide, but I have been driving a diesel with a mpguino working (almost) properly. So far I can tell you:
-coasting is a good thing
-low revs are a good thing
-accelerate a bit harder than you might think would be best for "hypermiling"
-plan ahead! The less braking you can do, the better you're doing, I reckon.

See elsewhere for the usual tips- tyre pressure, aero mods etc!

Hope that helps
