So I want to install a switch hidden under the dash to stop the engine starting.
Having done a search, the black/purple wire going to the tachometer seemed a likely candidate to break the circuit. However, when I disconnected it from the tach, the car would still start! Which wire should I use? The engine is a 1973 2.0 four cylinder with fuel injection. |

An easy anti-theft method is to pull the coil wire to distributor. Even if you leave the wire in the engine bay, I would expect most thieves would figure after lots of cranking and no starting, the car is just an old car and is not working, and then walk-away.
