Yeah - that's the question - how to turn off or disable the fuel pump.
That's what he asked.

That's what I thought. g If I unplug my fuel pump while it's running, it
continues to run until it's fuel starved. That way, I know there's no fuel
in the carb or cylinders. Treat what's left in the tank, and that's it.

Hi. I am winterizing a Mercruiser 2001 MX6.2L MPI engine with Cool
Fuel.
First time winterizing a fuel injected engine. Book says I need to
turn off
fuel supply, take out water sep fuel filter, poor 2-cycle oil into it,
reinstall fuel filter, and run engine until it stops.

Need to turn off the fuel pump to do this as there is no shut-off valve
(why
do boat builders never put fuel shut off valves in boats anymore).
There is
no breaker for the fuel pump. Anybody know a trick to turn off or
disable
the fuel pump to get the job done?

Unplug it if it's electrical.

it wont run with the fuel pump unplugged, no fuel pressure = no fuel =
no run.

Take care.
