Correct me if i'm wrong but, when the engine is running and you are in a tall gear say running 55 around 3000 rpms the engine is still firing and running at 3000 rpms and using fuel. Because you aren't gaining or losing speed doesn't mean the engine shuts off or shuts off fuel. Running 1000 rpms takes less fuel than running 3000. Unless you cut the car off you are still using fuel.
