There is another discussion of the same issue here. |
The engine is still not using fuel.
That thread is about the Scangauge misreporting the engine behavior. When the engine is off, it is not using fuel because the computer knows the engine is not turning over (crank sensor reads nothing, cam sensor reads nothing, MAF reads nothing). If it were still spitting fuel out the injectors while coasting with the engine off, you would see some evidence of it such as severely rich running on startup and a dark cloud of smoke until it clears out.
