Hypermiling with a carburetor
Any carburetor-specific hypermiling thoughts for my Quadrajet-equipped 1980 Buick?
I'm used to hypermiling with a high-tech wideband controlled fuel injection system, where you always slam the go-pedal to the floor and shift as low as possible. That worked ridiculously well in my 2008 VW. Now a good shove to the accelerator will squirt from the accelerator pump, which might waste more than allowing some pumping loss.
Obviously there's no DFCO so I'll avoid engine braking when it's unnecessary.
What else would differ?
