Your KV6 does Martin. Here's a quote from RAVE:

"The TP [Throttle Position] sensor also enables the ECM to provide over-run fuel cut off strategy. When the ECM receives a closed throttle signal from the TP sensor in conjunction with a vehicle speed signal which indicates the vehicle is moving, the ECM will inhibit injector operation. Fuelling is reinstated in a controlled manner when either of these parameters change to prevent [the] engine stall[ing]."
