AFM question

I'm all about unplugging stuff it seems.

I want to know what should happen to a healthy FC if you unplug the AFM?

Good, cause that's what mine did. I asked because I read an implication in some other thread that it would run with it disconnected... I was like wtf

thanks

it will run for a few seconds before the engine runs out of gas (the AFM closes the fuel pump circuit after the car has started for safety reasons)
