Before you respond, I’ve had a runaway in a diesel. There wasn’t an ASV, but I do keep the Halotron fire extinguisher in that vehicle for HOPEFULLY choking the engine if Murphy comes around.
It's an automatic, my thought process of sticking it in neutral is to stop it from launching forward into whatever may be in front of me at 100mph. Rather blow the engine than kill someone.

I've been 2-3 days now on the fence on whether to delete the ASV at the same time as the EGR or not. I've read countless threads and there's so many conflicting views on the subject.
