Modern engines will cut fuel consumption when rolling down a hill when being in gear. Put the engine in neutral, and it will idle, thus consume a bit of fuel.

Stopping in front of a traffic light and put the gear in neutral will indeed gain nothing.

Where are Shell petrol stations in England?

I'm trying to save gas while driving. When going down a hill, if I put it in neutral, with the engine on, and coast will it do any damage to the engine? I have an automatic transmission.

I have a 1995 Toyota Corrolla ... Over drive light keeps flashing and when you are coasting at like 30mph the transmission drops out of gear it feels as if its in neutral...its a automatic.... also replaced tranny fluid and filter.. same problem
