BD Diesel Positive Air Shutdown - Dodge 2003-2007 5.9L

BD Diesel is known for building tough performance and fuel economy products for diesel trucks. For certain industrial applications or just for peace of mind, having a reliable emergency engine shutdown system is crucial. This Positive Air Shutdown (PAS) kit from BD Diesel is designed to quickly and safely stop your 2003-2007 Dodge Ram 2500's engine by cutting off its air supply, which is the most effective way to halt diesel ignition.

This kit uses an inline butterfly valve that activates via a heavy-duty electrical solenoid. When triggered, it shuts down the engine within seconds. BD Diesel has worked to simplify the design, making the valve assembly smaller than many competing units. They've used aluminum and stainless steel components along with weatherproof electrical connectors to resist corrosion, ensuring it holds up in demanding environments. Installation is made easier with innovative bead boot locks, meaning no welding is required to secure the boots.

Having a system like this is similar to having a fire extinguisher or an emergency kit – it's about being prepared for rare but potentially catastrophic events like diesel engine runaway. This can happen if the engine ingests external hydrocarbons, causing it to over-speed and potentially fail. This BD Diesel PAS kit is designed to prevent that by safely stopping the engine's air intake. The kit includes the air shutoff valve, boot, wiring harness, intake pipe, clamps, velcro strips, heat shrink, module, and solder. It also includes automatic engine over-speed electronics and CAC pipes for some applications.
