Default Fuel Cutt Off Question

i bought a reck 99 t/a with the ls1. The air bags deployed wen it recked. Wen i tried to start it before i took it out it would only run off the statrer fluid we pit in the intake im prety sure there is a fuel cut off switch that activates wen the airbags deploye for saftey reasons and i know in fords there is usally a reset switch in the trunk or glove box. Im not sure if the t/a has one. Is this stored in the pcm???? and can it be deleted????

When my buddy totalled my last camaro the motor still ran fine. Both bags were deployed also. Check for any blown fuses etc.

i always thought that there was something to shut the fuel pump off in the case of a bad wreck or rollover. there was something that had to be reset in my old thunderbird once upon a time
