Just installed my fuel pump cut-off switch

[Stangfreak95]

I was thinking abouth this lately and I decided to install one today. For those who have no clue what it does, well like the title says, it cuts the power from a switch/relay to your fuel pump. If the switch is at OFF, the motor turns but wont start. ON is the regular setting. And you have to hide it obviously. Took about an hour to install. I'm saying this would reinforced your alarm system by a good 50%. There's a couple ways around it like finding the switch (which they wouldn't ) , or running a jumper directly from the battery to your fuel pump inertia switch but the odd theft will have no clue. Very happy with it

yeah i did that many years ago. Great mod. Sucks when ya forget to turn it on after parking it! lol

Yes it's a great "mod" if you wanna call this one. I tried it first at the ON position, the car ran fine. Then it put it to OFF and the car did start (just because of the fuel still in the line ) but 2 seconds later it stalled and never did restart until I reset the switch to ON. I love this

That's why you add a little LED warning light

well i didnt want anything that would give anyone an idea of where to look fopr the switch. an led would be easy to track back to the switch.

You could use a DPST (Double Pull, Single Throw - is that is?) switch and run a second set of wires to a little red light on the dash somewhere with a black mask with the word "FUEL" cut off. So when the switch is "ON" the "Fuel" light will glow
