Fuel Cutoff Mode

To prevent possible engine damage from over- speed, the Electronic Control Module (ECM) cuts off fuel from the injectors when engine speed is above 6200 rpm with the vehicle in any forward gear position, or in reverse. The ECM also cuts off fuel to the injectors at vehicle speeds above 115mph, to prevent tire damage.
