Engine doesn't idle when fuse is pulled 200 1989

posted by  someone claiming to be been there on  Thu Apr 26 00:59 CST 2007 [RELATED]

>>Pulling the fuel pump fuse when the motor is idling will cause the engine to cut out after it has run out of fuel and minimize fuel spill onto rags.<<

The "fuel pump" fuse kills the engine immediately. There will be no running out of fuel to reduce pressure. This myth may have worked on some cars some time, but not with Volvos.
