Inertia switch, do you see a problem if......

I wire my aftermarket fuel pump relay threw the stock inertia switch??? The fuel pump instructions say to to wire it to a oil pressure switch, so when the truck is in a accident and engine is shut down, the fuel pump will shut off. Strictly a safety issue. Well I don't have the stock E.F.I. set-up anymore. I have a carb set-up. But a wreck is a wreck, a rollover is a rollover, and the stock inertia switch will still do it's job. Am I missing something?????

Unless it specifically says not to use the stock inertia switch that's what I would use. Alot of those aftermarket parts come with some pretty basic instructions.

I agree. We all know what the inertia switch is designed to do. Might as well use it as it was intended to be used.
