Science labs are equipped with gas cut off valves in case of an emergency where all gas needs to be turned off at one; such as a gas fire. In such cases it can save lives and minimise damages.

Where is the fuel shut off valve in a 1993 geo prizm?

The service manual states there is a "fuel cut-off" valve which sends evaporated gas in the fuel tank to the EVAP canister in the engine compartment. The valve is located in the fuel tank. I am not sure if this is what you are referring to.


Where is the air cut valve located on a 1994 Honda Shadow 1100?

It is on the right side of the carburetor. You can bypass it and then disconnect the hose leading from it. This valve is there to cut the air flow off to enrichen the air to gas mixture when the bike is being decelerated. The valve prevents backfiring on a mixture that is too lean. Honda jetted these bikes very lean so that is the reason.
