Ignition off just turns off the warning lights and the tach.

Not so much with the SB8 series. That being said, whatever actuation method is employed, it is best for the fuel to be shut off to kill the engine. If there is a fuel solenoid - fine. If there is a throttle actuator that goes below idle - fine. Ultimately you want the engine to be starved of diesel fuel. What you don't want is to regularly kill the engine by obstructing the air or eliminating the compression. These methods allow fuel to collect and linger on the cylinders after shutdown. Check your engine to see what is being activated to shut it down. If it is fuel related then you're probably fine leaving it as is.

Probably a dumb question but in my research I have encountered a variety of opinions about shutting down the SB8. The previous owner had disconnected the kill switch and just used the ignition to shut the engine down. I have always used the kill switch on all my diesels and this concerned me. Any opinions out there on this subject? Should I reconnect the cable or is it fine to just use the ignition to turn the engine off? Any concerns about doing damage to the engine or electronics using this method? Thanks so much! Approaching launch date but still some projects to complete!
