Fuel Pump shut off switch

Hi all,

my rig is a 1999 f-350 7.3

I'd like to install a Fuel Pump shut off switch to use as a theft deterrent,
has anyone done this?

do you have pics and instructions? I think this would be a better alternative than a starter kill.

thanks in advance

Welcome to FTE John. You might want to consider something other than a fuel shut off switch. Starving the fuel is hard on the injectors and will make it hard to restart. It's easier to disable one of the systems in the computer that will not allow the truck to start and won't be a pain otherwise.

Read this link for a simple alternative. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/7...nt-method.html

I appreciate the link, looks like I have a project to do.

I have got to say, the folks on this site are great...

now if i could only figure out which wire I cut accidently, I could get my cruise control working again.
