they have an edic device that shuts off the fuel flow to the engine..sounds like it is faulty..it works a metal rod to the injector pump it should move the rod when you shut it off..does that make sense.. :oops:Check this out

they have to move three ways fully forward middle and back i would try to disconnect the rod from the solenoid unit and see if its the rod or the unit then go from there .. if its the rod i would just try to lube it up with crc or somethig similar if its the unit i dont know
