G'day Speedy,

It's not a good idea to use the fuel tap to turn off the mower, which is why I don't let any 2 stroke run out of fuel if I can help it. I always slip off the snorkel from the throttle and filter assembly and block it with my hand if the cut out isn't working.

From a Victa guide on fuelling and safety.

Ahh, if only victa had kept producing the thumblatch catcher series, they would be in better shape today!
