You mean like a shutoff valve?
IIRC, the Ford Escort Diesel had one fitted, the mark three versions. I thought there was a citroen with one fitted as well, but I don't recall which one.

My mistake, I believe what you are looking for is called an overrun valve, more likely to be fitted to a petrol, with early injection system on it.
Guess what? I can't find one either............

I give up, its not called an over run valve either, that's something entirely different.
I'm sure there was an electronic control valve in the fuel line on older diesel Escorts.

For all the use this my post is, I may as well delete it......:P

Bleedin' 'ell! I searched for them as well, and all I came up with was cuttoff valves that fit in a diesel pump. I swear different peoples computers give different results with the same search term.

What about the red fuel cutoff valve you get in PSA cars,
you should have one on the 406 (top right as you look under the bonnet).

Or is this an electronic shutoff, not sure actually.

Don't like them hosetails on the first one-moulded placcy  :-\
second one-pricey but more suitable-swop out the hosetails for bsp compression fittings-suit my nylon airline fuel pipes better.
Chinky one is cheap! will take compression fittings or whatever you want by the look of it...but....2.5mm bore size???-cold veg would stuggle to go through that. Bio wouldn't go through quick enough on anything but idle either.
Just thinking out aloud-anti theft device for the Landy 110?

There's loads more on there, those were just the first three that came up.

If you're thinking anti-theft, buy a three way and route the spare outlet to pump fuel over the thief's head.
