Fuel cout off inertia switch
chriscook - 15/4/07 at 12:44 PM

I am in the middle of my EFI conversion and have not yet got hold of an inertia switch. There are a few on ebay but they do not have the connector. Has anyone got a spare one knocking around with connector?

Thanks,
Chris

Are you fitting one just in case of an impact or is it necessary for the EFi you're using????

They are not a requirement, but I have fitted one.
I don't like the idea of fuel spraying everywhere if I do have an accident

Ketchup - U2U sent

BenB - What nitram said! It also easy access under the bonnet to turn the pump off if I spray myself with petrol like I did yesterday when I had my pressure regulator in the wrong way round!

Ta,
Chris

I've got one off a Rover with a tidy wiring diagram. Is that OK?

He he he,

Your turn to make the garage a potential bomb site this time! Remember when I learnt the lesson that 10mm ID fuel hose on an 8mm OD fuel tank outlet will not seal no matter how tight you do the jubilee clip!

We could have gone for a swim in the resulting pool of petrol on the garage floor!
