Ok, I am wondering how to wire up this so when this switch is turned, it does not allow the fuel pump to come on and therefor not allow the car to be started. I did a searhc but couldnt come up with anything. Only thing Iknow is there is some wire under the carpet of the drivers side of the car. Thanks

Your fuel pump relay is under your drivers seat. You could wire your toggle right before your fuel pump relay or right after and basically have the same result...toggle off, no power to pump, no start By doing this instead of wiring your pump directly to a toggle like I did, you still have your inertia switch in working order

ok so all I do is find that wire below the drivers sear (which wire is it anyways) run it to a toggle, and ground the toggle out and I should be good to go correct? Thanx

well, there are 3 wires that go into the fuel pump relay connector I believe...my diagram shows that from the EEC to the Fuel Pump Relay, the wire is Tan/Lt. Green. From the Relay to the Intertia switch, it's red/black, so take your pick. and depending on your toggle switch, you may or may not have to ground it. I have one switch that requires ground, one doesn't. Make sure you crimp your connections well lol, don't want to lose power to your fuel pump when you hit a bump...
