But my old man is adamant that he wants to instal a Kill Switch, to kill the ignition. Normally he would have one for the injectors, or the fuel pump, but this car is dual fuel, so it sort of has to go on the ignition somewhere. BUT WHERE?? Has anyone done one of these and how did you wire it up?? Any other ideas for a kill switch?? I thought of maybe the crank angle sensor, but these are tempremental enough with out mucking with them... Ideas please??? cheers

But the cunning old bugger had my car all pulled apart and bits everywhere. When I asked what the hell he was doing, he just said with a sly grin that I would see. I left him too it and went into tow

EFI relay Injectors Starter Coil pack Fuel pump main computer Crank angle sensor MAP sensor etc All can be "hotwired&q
