CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION:

The Fuel Cut-Off solenoid is energized by the Fuel Cut-off Relay with the the ignition switch "ON." When the ignition switch is turned "OFF" the Fuel Cut-off solenoid is de-energized and fuel is immediately cut-off to prevent dieseling. Using the signal from the idle switch the ECM also shuts down fuel when it senses the coasting condition after off-idle condition.
