Since the Chief has no idle cut off mixture all I could do was to shut the fuel valve off and sit and wait, and wait, and wait. -Robert |

It'll usually quit. The lean mixture on decreasing RPM and the lack of an accelerator pump will starve it enough to quit. But it's still better to run it out of fuel, for safety. I do that with my A-65. Dan |
