For clarity. I was not in the least insulted before - but I am now.

I withdrew before because it was clear that you were either unable or unwilling to offer an explanation of why your method did not increase the risk of engine seizure compared to mine. This is what I was willing to learn and would have been informative to the other users of this board.

So, in simple terms can you explain why shutting off the airflow (along with the fuel and oil it is carrying) BEFORE choking does not increase the risk of seizure when compared to my method? This is what I asked you to do before, but you did not. If your method will preserve the engine better than mine that is great, but I need, and the board deserves, a rational explanation which goes beyond "I have never experienced it". That is the argument of the smoker denying a link with cancer - "well I have smoked for 40 years and I am OK". Such an approach simply ignores the science and I am surprised that you appear to have descended to such a position.

As for your method being more competitive, I fail to see how lifting off, flooring the throttle then lifting off then flooring again will get you round a corner quicker than choking at your normal braking point before accelerating out of the corner, but I am not a driver just a mechanic. I will leave it to the drivers to assess which is the better technique.

As I have repeatedly said I am not interested in an argument or scoring undergraduate debating points. If you have something to teach me, and others then great. I have learned things from your postings before and I am keen to learn, but at the moment I think your position is simply not sustainable and worse, for the reasons I have outlined, is poor advice. I sincerely hope you prove me wrong.

So again that is the last word (for the avoidance of doubt I mean MY last word), unless you do have something which explains the physics of why REDUCING lubrication and removing the source of heat production from two pieces of metal rubbing at extremes of temperature and velocity (the effect of your step 2) is not inherently an inferior idea compared to INCREASING the lubrication and REDUCING the temperature (my method)
