I started a thread on the lifespan of a clutch pump in preparation for this thread. you can read up on that here -> Clutch pump - good for how many pumps? the main reason for asking the question on how many pumps a clutch pump is good for, because if you want to use the pulse and glide method, you will be engaging and releasing the clutch more often for a manual car. How does the pulse and glide method work? When i first got my car, the average FC is around 8.5-9KM/L after i read the above, i tried it on my ride. and i was really pleased with the results! I got an average of 10KM/L after trying the above method for one tank! I am still in the midst of perfecting the pulse and glide, but it works! and i must say, quite wonderfully too! imagine, i managed to squeeze a whole 15% more mileage out of my small tank! For those who are already pulsing and gliding, do share your experience. For those who are not, after reading this, are you going to try?
