Fuel saving...
Fuel cut is an economy feature on most modern ECU's. If high manifold
vacuum, closed throttle and rpm above approx 1500 all exist at the same
time, the ECU will shut off the injectors. These three conditions are typical
of closed throttle overrun (deceleration).

It is a standard feature of all 4AGE ECU's as far as I know. But I don't
know if the SAFC will override this feature. If you have a Air/Fuel ratio
gauge, you can tell when fuel cut occurs, as the A/F ratio will become
very great >60:1 or more.

The difference between fueling and not fueling on overrun has an affect
on gear tooth loadings, and hence the possibility of "chattering" of the
gear teeth.

Does the rattling happen only in one gear, or can it be heard in several ??
