Hey how are you, I grew up in Potosi and live in Farmington now. Anyhow, yes the government mandates that there is something to shut the fuel off in a crash, started mandating it in the late 90s. It is usually an inertia relay that is probably in the trunk area, look at the manual, it will tell you all about it if its there.
