Product Description
The BD DIESEL 1036713-M Positive Air Shut-Off (Manual Controlled) is a critical safety device engineered for Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra 2500/3500 trucks with the 6.6L Duramax engine (model years 2011–2016). In the rare event of a diesel engine runaway — caused when external hydrocarbons are drawn into the engine intake — this manual Positive Air Shut-Off (PAS) safely cuts intake air supply to quickly stop combustion and prevent catastrophic engine overspeed and damage.
Constructed with a robust aluminum and stainless butterfly valve and weather-resistant electrical components, the BD Diesel manual PAS kit offers a simplified and compact design that installs easily into the intake ducting without welding. A heavy-duty electrical solenoid and locked safety cam provide dependable valve closure when manually activated, offering an added layer of protection for work trucks, off-road rigs, and commercial applications.

FAQ
What is a Positive Air Shut-Off (PAS)?
A PAS cuts the intake air supply to the engine in emergency conditions to safely stop combustion and prevent runaway. This manual version requires driver activation via switch or control.
Why is this important for diesel engines?
Diesel runaway is rare but dangerous. In case flammable vapors are ingested through the intake, the engine can overspeed beyond safe limits. A PAS system offers a mechanical way to stop air and quickly shut the engine down.
Is installation difficult?
Installation typically takes a few hours and uses mechanical mounting and electrical connections provided in the kit. No welding is required.
