I'm sure this has been discussed a billion times before....

I'm thinking of installing a TBI cutout switch. The idea is to have an enable/disable switch near the stick shift or e-brake so that "disabled" the car runs normal - engine on all the time. "Enabled" will allow a TBI wire to be interrupted whenever I push in the clutch - where I will have a second momentary switch near the already installed start contact. This would cut fuel to the engine with the clutch engaged, then when I start allowing the clutch pedal to move out, the TBI circuit would make and run the engine again. This would give me an Engine Off Pulse and Glide with minimal "operator interface". I would wire these two switches and use a relay as needed to make this happen.

If I have to stop, I can place the switch to "disable", and then I can go through the gears normally until it is time to do Engine Off Pulse and Glide.

This could double as a kill switch/theft deterrent.

Any thoughts, or am I high as a kite?

Thanks in advance.
