Better to cut fuel instead of ignition.

unburnt fuel going round the ROTOR housing not good its like bore wash in a piston engine, yes defo better to cut fuel then spark, although some systems do both

Different cars work differently. Some can handle fuel cut, some cant. All depends on the application.

Aussies from what I gather tend to prefer ignition cut rather than fuel. Fuel I have experienced before is quite aggressive.
