help with fuel injector Kill switch for ZX2

OK until I get 10 post I can't contact anyone directly. I Know that moorecomp has installed a Fuel injector kill switch on his ZX2 and I'm just hoping to get some help. As it is I turn off my engine and then bump start it. This freezes my scangage until the engine restarts. I can't find a post specifically for the ZX2. Thanks for any help.

Welcome to Ecomodder. Glad to see more ZX2's on the site. I put together a post with a few pics of my killswitch, and a vid I did for someone who wanted to see how well an injector cut works.

Finally posting pics of my Stealth Kill Switch.

Be aware that EOC is an advanced hypermiling method, and should be used with caution. The ZX2 has a great vacuum reserve, I can get almost 6 brake applications before running out of boost. The brakes are very stiff without boost, but not unusable. I can stop without any vacuum, but it definitely takes some effort! Checkout my profile photo albums for more mods, air dam and grill block, passenger mirror delete and antenna shortening.

Feel free to join our Team ZX2, friendly mpg competition.

Again, welcome to the site.
