25 amp would be more then enough.

because the cltuch swtich is a small ground circuit, not even positive, that completes with the pressing of the clutch.

doing some DIY security???

On the top left of the clutch pedal.

There is a little white cylinder looking thing with two wires coming out of them. Cut one of them and splice in a switch. I did it, works perfect.

Good idea put en the clutch switch on. 15 amp should be plenty. You don't want it to big.

Just curious could you still push start a car with the switch off or does this leave the car dead? Thinking of doing some security to my car but was thinking about that

for clutch kill, yes it'll start with the ignition switch on while pop starting...

thats why you kill power to injectors/coil/distributor/ecu etc etc...

So why do a clutch kill then? I guess most people won't try to push start it but seems like there are better options than messing with that switch

Most newbie theives won't think to push start. My fuel pump has a kill, my park relay has a kill, I'm gonna see about making an ECU kill. I was even think of making a outdoor light kill. Cops will definitly pull over a car with absolutely no lights, regardless of how well it drives at night. Most theives drive the car nice so no one is the wiser until it's time to chop it, well, the real theives do. A punk will just beat the **** out of it and leave it dead somewhere.

yea i wired up a pretty nice starter kill since i gotta turbo timer... i cant really kill my ign, fuel, or ecu cuz the cars gotta stay running....

so i spliced the starter wire in 2 places and made two switches with relays. a flip switch (VERY hidden) and a push and hold switch thats INVISIBLE to the eye...


but yea, a clutch kill 2 would be a GREAT add on... i shoulda put that in too while my dash was out... damn it!
