Kill switch

[Ronan stamp]

I am putting a kill switch in my k11. It’s a rally build and just for safety if anything happens, was wondering where’s the best place I should wire it in
Any advice would be appreciated

I would say usually on a battery cable?

An engine can continue running without the battery connected using the power generated by the alternator, so this needs to be disconnected in the same switch, bad obsession motorsport installed one on thier Citroen racecar and explained why it needs to cut both circiuts.

Ah I thought that was only carbed engines

I almost remembered correctly...
Kill switch install starts at about 11.26.

Ive heard wiring it onto the fuel pump wires works well

Where the radio was is a good place to mount it, cut the battery positive wire plus the ignition live from the ignition switch.
