This would be a fine anti theft if it were an Injected car i.e the car would
never start....However, these are all (with a few exceptions) carburated
engines with float bowls full of fuel. You might test sometime, just how
far you can drive on a float bowl fuul of fuel. You can be sure they'll get
out of the parking lot and down the road a bit before it pukes. Ignition
lock out is Much better for anti theft.
I also realize the reasonable need for a fuel pump switch too. Why not use
a double pole single throw switch and cut off both systems with the same
switch. ???
