Eww... Cutting fuel, since it sn't reducing it, but turning it off
completely, wouldn't make a lean condition...
Cutting spark, cats or not, may cause more problems, as raw fuel into the
exhaust makes a rather spectacular explosion!
I blew a pair of Hemi mufflers off a 68 Pontiac Bonneville... Turned the key
off for about 2 secs while under way at 70MPH and when I cut the key back on
it blew the exhaust system apart!
Scared the hell out of me!
