So basically whether in gear or in neutral, as long as your foot is off the accelerator, either way no fuel is being used!

I guess that the fact that the revs are higher than idle if 'in gear' still doesn't mean more fuel is going in, the engine is simply being turned over by the movement thus not needing fuel?!
