No, I wasn't very specific. I mean doing this at home just to see what happens.

That way the key could stay unchanged in the "run" position while you cut and restart the engine. But this is really all overkill in an automatic transmission car, because you can't cut the engine in an auto trans car while rolling (EOC, the big FE gains). And since you'd still be using the starter motor. So your best strategy, most cost effective and least expensive with no loss in fuel saving benefits is just to key off and on at lights longer than 10 or 15 seconds.

This works? I'm thinking of doing it at-home to see what happens. I tried pulling the fuel pump fuse and fuel pump relay but those aren't the injectors. My main goal here is to stop fuel from pumping in while keeping the van on, Otherwise (So ScanGauge II info is retained.) The gauge is due for an update in firmware though, At the 4.06 firmware it goes wonky if I shut the van off then turn it back on before the gauge has fully saved the info.
