Thanks getnpsi. I would rather have a normally open switch so if it's lead are somehow detached in the dash, I will lose the choke, but the engine will still run. Which means I need a normally open switch and normally closed relay. Will the wiring diagram in the attached file work? (I forgot to draw it, but the GROUND wire goes to the switch, then to the ground)

Relay: SPDT (OR SPST NC) 12V 1A
Switch: SPST NO, Momentary

Will 12V 1A relay, and 3A 250VAC switch, work for this application?

edit: I'm using it to kill the engine in idle for P&G, not for engine braking, so I need a complete kill.

Thanks.

Kirk
