okay, I know about the grounding points issue to stopping an engine cold in it's tracks.

but the downside is heating up that coil and having it blow up. I have points now (pertronix would have obvious problems with this).

does anybody know (i cant read wiring diagrams yet) which fuse trace and wire powers the coil? I know its unfused, so I guess I answered my own question...my gut feeling is that the only way to get to it is through the engine bay. But I could in therory put a kill switch in there.....


any thoughts?

Suppose you could trace that green power wire from the ignition switch... Or was it black? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/happy11.gif)
