Also a manual choke, and keep it shut when parked. How many theves know how to work a choke, or think to open it when starting a car and it only putters a time or two before flooding?
You sound like my brother in laws friend that uses a cigarette lighter for a kill switch. You take the lighter with you when you get out. I have no idea how it works though.

I think you just posted a "how to" for my neighbors to come and steal my truck. Could you drop the details? I didn't even know it myself.

Fuel shut off is an option.
Fuel shut off is the best imo.




Bottom line is, if they get it, you want to get it back ASAP so have a "lojack" installed so the police can find it for you.
