A fuel pump (48) for a diesel engine has a control lever (49) movable from "cut-off", through "idle", to "maximum". An accelerator mechanism has a first part (42,22) movable with an accelerator pedal between "idle" and "maximum", and a second part (23,24,50) movable with the control lever (49) and urged by a spring (29) to follow the first part from "idle" to "maximum". A further mechanism has a "cut-off" position in which it holds the second part (24) in the "cut-off" position irrespective of movement of the accelerator, and a "running" position in which it permits the second part to follow the movement of the accelerator. To provide such action, the further mechanism comprises a bowden cable mechanism, a boss (52) on the second part sliding along an end portion (54) of the inner cable when in the "running" position and being held by a nipple (55) on the end of the inner cable when in the "cut-off" position. The inner cable is operated by a reversible electric motor (61) connected to a switch (62), Fig. 5 (not shown), associated with a vehicle steering column lock. An idling stop (18) is abutted by a lever (13), engaged by the lever (23), in the idling position of the accelerator pedal. <IMAGE>
