Heck these days just being a standard is a theft deterrent. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) |

Papa Smurf has a push start and two switches: one for the starter and one for 'everything else' including the ECU. Flip starter switch, push button and develop oil pressure without ignition to prime the oil system, then flip ECU switch, start the car.
Good habit for race engines and cars that sit for a while.  (damn those screws look rusty!!) |

I did not see this mentioned, so ...
One of the things the standard Ignition/Starter Switch does is prevent engaging the starter after the engine has been started. Once you turn the key to the start position you have to turn it back to off to turn it to start again. So if you install a push button start switch mount it where it is not likely to get bumped while driving and don't push it while the engine is running. It can be bad for the starters and flywheel to be engaged while the engine is running. Jim |

I put starter button in my dash , only works with the key on , it helps when you stall the
car and you don't have to turn the key off & back on ( just push button ) , it also runs through a relay , I've been running it for a couple years Bill D. http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...=252391&hl= |
