Assuming fuel is also cut, how is this different from turning the key off? A coil could be charging, an injector could be spraying, but it stops - NOW.

That would be even cleaner than what we have had up to know with any MS version and it would also allow what some have been wanting, i.e., a way to shut the engine off without shutting MS off.
I've contacted James about it and there is a very easy and small code change that can be done to MS2/Extra that would do just that and I assume the equivalent could be done on MS3 but I don't have the current code so I can't confirm. However James is not comfortable with introducing a code change to MS2/Extra at this time since 3.3.x is a release version. There is also the issue of having an external device having direct control over fuel and ignition.
