This kit provides a way to safely shut down your engine in the rare event of a diesel engine runaway. It works by electronically closing the factory throttle body to cut off the air supply, stopping the engine before catastrophic failure occurs. — Diesel engine runaway happens when an external, unintended fuel source (like combustible vapor or oil) is drawn into the intake. Since a diesel engine's speed is controlled by fuel, introducing this extra fuel can cause it to accelerate uncontrollably, even with the key off, leading to catastrophic damage. The BD Diesel E-PAS (Electronic Positive Air Shutdown) is a safety device that gives you a way to stop this. It integrates with your 2019-2024 Ram's factory electronic throttle body in the intake manifold, using it as an emergency air shut-off valve. When activated, the E-PAS commands the throttle plate to close completely, choking the air supply and safely shutting down the engine to protect your investment.
