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. |

I know the OP doesn't want to pop open the lid, but if I'm worried about my car I just reach in there and remove the fuel pump relay. Even have it marked with a silver Sharpie (including rotation direction) so I can grab and reinstall it easily.
I mean, it's not like this is an Ocean's Eleven crew looking to steal a Porsche 914, equipped with a well-versed Porsche Master Technician to troubleshoot a no-start...one or two good turns on the screwdriver-key and they're likely to just walk away. |
