Forget about the gear---speed thing..


For saving gas, you should shift at 2000-2200 rpm..

And give enough gas during accleration.. I dont mean pushing the pedal half way down, but almost....



When in traffic and you gotta kinda flow with everyone else, you could go as high as 3000rpm..


For now, avoid driving with the radio on.. Try to listen to your engine and feel how it reacts to driving.


Like hondaman said.. Dont think of racing or driving fast until you're able to shift like butter.. Cause you'll burn your tranny and lutch sooo fast..


Anyways, good luck!
