Nice write-up, GTO. Pretty informative for those of us who value FE.

To put a number to this, for 10mins of idling, you waste approx. 100ml of fuel. Do the math according to individual idling practice.

BTW, GTO, marriage seems to have had its effect on you.
First the car-pooling, now a list on bettering FE. All this coming from someone who used to be revv-happy and for whom FE was the least important factor in selecting a car (atleast that is what the tbhp archives indicate).
