Default Good security trick

The first thing I did to my stang have my buddy install a fuel pump cutoff switch. Put the switch someone close but hard to find and turn off your fuel pump every time you get out.That way if someone does get to it and starts it, it will only run for a few seconds. Cheap and easy but very effective.

Yeah, I wish I could have done it myself so I could explain how to do it. It works great, my mom tried to move my car the other day and started it then it died, kind sucked though cause it was like 6:00 a clock and I had to get up. WHO GOES TO BREAKFAST THAT EARLY ON A SATURDAY.

Yeah, I used to have that problem with my truck, would leave the lights on. It sucks to walk out to a dead battery.

I did that to my ride! If you just put a toggle switch into the fuel pump cut off circuit it acts like you were in a collision when you turn the switch on without the prob of killing the batt. If you forget the switch you have a no start. not a dead batt.
