The Honda civic carburator has fuel cut off that turns the fuel off when you kill the engine, it does this with 4 valves on the carburator, it also does this when you engine brake, as in when you are going down the hill and take your foot off the gas.
This is why the carburator on the civic is so impressive, of course if you remove any of the 54 vacuum hoses it will stop working correctly and cause horrible engine damage like you are talking about.
