the fuel cut-off switch on a 2002 cavalier?

A 2002 Chevrolet Cavalier doesn't have a readily accessible, easily identifiable "fuel cut-off switch" like some larger vehicles or equipment might. There's no single switch you can flip to instantly stop fuel flow.

Fuel delivery is controlled by the engine's computer (Powertrain Control Module or PCM) and various sensors. If there's a problem, the PCM might cut fuel flow, but this isn't a manually activated safety switch. To stop fuel flow in an emergency, you'd need to disconnect the fuel pump's electrical connector (this requires knowledge and some mechanical skills). However, this is not a recommended method unless you're trained to do so safely, and even then, it's a last resort measure.

If you're looking for a way to disable the vehicle, a more effective method would be to remove the car's key or disconnect the battery's negative terminal.
