umm...theres a relay on the bottom of the clutch pedal that you have to press in order for the ignition to start. So either thats shorted out or something else is shorted out. JEs an idea...you can actually run a switch in series with that line and you can use it as a kill switch for your car....well not urs cuz urs will start either way. Hey i jes noticed ur from davis...u met any of the davis guys yet? hope you know Davis is the KOUKI capital rite?

hmmm... never thought about that... kill switch hidden somewhere inconspicuous... do all cars have these relays? and yes, i go to davis and I drive the burgundy 91 fastback with a recent dent to driver side and the hood with clear coat comin off... all that being fixed soon with the insurance money... I havent met any davis 240 people yet though... was gonna go to the meet way back couple months ago but i had no time...

I got one...cost me bout $6. $2 for toggle switch and $4 for 12 gauge wire. Cut, the thing as high as i can...spliced each end with the wire. Figured out where to hide my switch...run the wires tru the dash. Electrical taped the the wires so you cant tell that somebody modified it. So when i dont feel same, i jes flip the damn switch. Cant start the damn car without flipping it and have fun ripping my dash to find the switch. Also the other thing...u can do the same thing for you fuel pump. Theyll manage to start the car but once the lines run out of fuel...IT WONT GO NOWHERE.
As for the Davis cats...id say check out the zilvia meet out in sac on the 13th i think. Some of em should be there.
