Fuel cut-off?

My searches haven't turned up much, so here are 3 questions:

Does the 5G have a fuel cut-off?
Is it manual or inertia?
Where is it?

Fuel cut off in what sense? Like Fiat do in that when you roll the car the main relay is disabled? Or with foot off the accelerator no fuel is being used? Or something else?

or top of the rev range? like it cuts fuel rather than bounces against a limiter? It does do that in my experience.

To cut off the fuel in the event of an accident.

Not that I an aware of. The Lude does have a cruise control impact vacuum canister that when broken during an impact it will switch the CC off.

hey guys just to let you know the 5th gen does have a fuel cut off as I found out when my missuses hit a bit lump of wood on the motorway and I have to tow it back sort the car and reset it you'll find it under the dash under the steering wheel so basiclly get your head in the footwell of the drivers side and look up, if it cuts of its just a pull down plunger to reset it

So it's a bit like sex in that respect?

Don't forget some need a go on the prime button, others need a bit of choke.

More like a lawnmower.
