how about the server limiting fuel?

Of course real life pilots did not fly on full throttle all the time. It would have been impossible to maintain formation, engines would become unnecessarily hot, engine overhaul time might have been compromised and fuel would be consumed too quickly.

I assume your are using CEM or the question is pointless.
If you are using CEM fuel will be used more quickly so again the question is pointless.

And there is more to avoiding someone on your six than using full throttle.

The term 'locking on' suggests you are flying arcade settings using devices like 'Lock On To Target' so again the question is pointless. You can play with whatever you like in arcade settings and create whatever illusion of air combat you wish.
