Product Description
The BD DIESEL 1036713 Positive Air Shut-Off is a critical safety upgrade for Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 2500/3500 trucks equipped with the 6.6L Duramax (LML) diesel engine, 2011–2016. Designed as a mechanical emergency engine shutdown system, this inline butterfly valve cuts off the air supply to the engine in the event of runaway conditions, helping prevent catastrophic damage and preserve life and equipment.
Featuring a heavy-duty electrical solenoid that trips a locked safety cam to close the butterfly valve within seconds, this PAS system provides rapid shutdown when activated. The design simplifies installation with bead-style boot locks that eliminate the need for welding. Major components are corrosion-resistant aluminum and stainless steel with weatherproof electrical connectors for dependable long-term performance.
