So, I have the LS3 M6 with the decel pop due to fuel cut-off. This got me to thinking about the concept and how it works.

My assumption is that when you let off the gas, a few seconds later the fuel is cut-off to the engine by a solenoid or something. So technically the engine is not running and the back wheels are pushing the engine. Correct?

All 8 cylinders??

Are the spark plugs firing? If so, isn't this drying up/wearing on the cylinders?

This also must be the reason for the odd dragging effect that kicks in a few seconds after you lift on the gas that feels like somebody is pressing the rear brakes just a tad

This condition obviously must also take into account that the car is moving, the clutch engaged and the transmission is in gear. Otherwise the engine would quit running (turning) altogether if you were pop it out of gear or press the clutch. Right? Otherwise the car would not start when it is sitting still.

Giving it is some more thought, the whole deal is not very far removed from the DOD/AFM on the L99...just a little backward in programming.

Any thoughts or corrections to my thinking. Thanks
