i would wire up an ignition cutoff instead. a lot easier to do and you wont have to crawl under the car to activate it. if you really want to cut off fuel, wire up a switch that kills the power to the fuel pump relay. now with the flip of a switch (or two) your car has no fuel and no spark

What I was thinking of doing is both, I was going to go with a kill switchtapped into the coil or somewhere else in the ignition ormaybe even tapping into the fuel pump ground wire as you guys suggested& the fuel line cut off valve.
Installing the valve cant be any harder then installing an inline fuel filter..
It's maybe a little heavier, maybe I can mount it ..
I think it would really help with security, not to be used everytime I stop @ 7-11 but overnight & long term storage, ect..
I'mmm not sure what I'm going to do...I did order a simple kill switch couple days ago, so I'll start there..
Thanks for chiming in,
Alan
