From what I've heard, there's enough fuel in the IP and injectors lines to destroy an engine, so not sure if cutting the fuel line will do it? Don't know though, never had one run away, an hopefully..., learning from Larry's tearful experience, I won't!
BTW, maybe we should all start a fund that we donate to for Larry's destroyed engine. Every time we "almost" didn't check, or "almost" had a runaway, but we saved it because we remember Larry's caveats, we donate a few $'s???
