NO - extremely dangerous. The tiny chance that you need to islolate is
no match for the chance of a mixing screwup. Don't do it. Besides, it
would take about 25 minutes to drain your tanks on a freeflow with
broken knob or freezeup, and the few extra seconds it would take to make
another turn on the knob is not exactly the risk here.
