Manual shut off?

[putneyflash@...]

Take the wire off the fuel soleniod on top of the fuel service assembly, without
voltage applied the solenoid should drop shutting off the fuel.to start it you
will have to connect the wire back up to apply voltage.if all else fails remove
the solenoid and put finger in the hole and push down on the fuel control. you
will have to pull it up manually to start.

On many diesels, there is a manual shut off switch for the engine if
the key switch fails to stop fuel delivery. I haven't seen one on my
FC with CAT 3208. Is there one? If not, what is the emergency shut
off procedure? I know putting a plastic bag around the air filter
will probably solve the problem, but I'm curious as to whether BB
built an alternative into the system from the start.
I've seen at least a few accounts of 3208's running away as a result
of bad seals in the turbo fueling the engine with oil.
