what kind of car is it
If the engine is running it is burning fuel, whether the gas pedal is pressed or not.
It doesn't have gas pedal problems because the standard transmission use a cable just for the clutch not for the gas pedal. That question just apply in automatic transmisiion. I hope this help

Maybe you arn't pressing the gas pedal?
Because the gas pedal controls fuel to the motor. It does not interact directly with the transmission.
When shifting from first to second gear in a manual transmission vehicle, you need to press the clutch pedal to disengage the engine from the transmission. Then, while keeping the clutch pedal depressed, move the gear shifter from first gear to second gear. Finally, release the clutch pedal slowly while simultaneously pressing the gas pedal to smoothly engage the engine with the transmission in second gear.
Many cars require you to press the gas pedal when starting the car. It's quite normal.
