Question

16. Do not rest left foot on floor board pedals while driving. The slightest pressure puts "mechanical drag" on components, wearing them down prematurely. This "dragging" also demands additional fuel usage.

Do you mean don't rest the left foot on the brake pedal?

not when this was written. the brake pedal (back then) was not only made of wood, but would push a piece of 2x4 into the rim of the tire as a method of slowing the sled down. thus.. board pedal.
