Default Just installed my feul cut off switch(whoohooo!)

Must say, that was the easiest install I've ever done, including my strutbars. great addition to my sanity with my super top secret stealth location, it's hard to see even if you know where it is.

if there is no fuel, the car can't start. The cutoff switch is something you switch off after you park your car so that if a thief tries to steal it, it won't start-unless he can find the switch. (That's why we are not telling you where they are )Even if he finds the switch, it could save you because all that time he spent looking for it (if he even knew what it was) could of gave up or ran out of time (meaning someone seeing him).

Mine you can't see even if you are looking directly at it.

I also have a magnet switch. You gotta have a magnet in a certain spot for the car to start.

i never thought of that.
if i know i am going to be somewhere for a long period of time, hell i just take out the distributor. thats one good thing about an older 5.0 mustang. you can unclip the dist. cap and take out the rotor. he hee. sorry to say that if a theif wants a car bad enough, it will be on a rollback.
