What is happening when the engine cuts off on a newer vehicle?
I am wanting to know about the ones that do it as a fuel saving measure when you stop and apply the brake. Does it really stop completely? If so, how does it start up again as soon as the foot is removed from the brake? My son says he thinks they just drop to an idle with only two cylinders firing but it doesn’t feel like any parts are still active?
