Maybe one for old school mechanics. Being told to be in the correct gear for the speed of the car, has this anything to do with carburettor engines and not flooding carburettors? So now that cars are fuel injected, we don't need to worry about flooding carburettors and modern engine are more forgiving when in the wrong gear.
