A fuel-pump shutoff switch is a perfect antitheft device—and easy to install by splicing into the appropriate wire at the fuse block. I have one in my BN7 to address dieseling after nothing else worked. Simply run the system out of fuel before switching off the ignition. <div><br><br><div class="yahoo-signature"><a style="font-size:12px" href="https://aolapp.onelink.me/eG2g?pid=NativePlacement&c=US_Acquisition_YMktg_320_EmailSignature_AttributionDL&af_sub1=Acquisition&af_sub2=US_YMktg&af_sub3=&af_sub4=100002473&af_sub5=SentFromNewAOLApp__Interstitial_&af_ios_store_cpp=ce85ce34-ad0f-4811-a92b-a172743b064e&af_android_url=https%3A%2F%2Fplay.google.com%2Fstore%2Fapps%2Fdetails%3Fid%3Dcom.aol.mobile.aolapp%26listing%3Demail_signature_attribution">Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS</a><br></div><br><p class="yahoo-quoted-begin" style="font-size: 15px; color: rgb(132, 115, 255); padding-top: 15px; margin-top: 0px;">On Saturday, January 31, 2026, 3:04 PM, warthodson--- via Healeys <healeys@autox.team.net> wrote:</p><blockquote class="iosymail"><div id="yiv4378440288"><div><div style="font-family:Comic Sans MS, sans-serif;font-size:16px;" class="yiv4378440288ydp40f50e3eyahoo-style-wrap"><div></div>
<div dir="ltr">My father purchased a used '62 Corvette in the late 60's. He worked in the insurance industry & he heard that 90% of all Corvettes were stollen sometime in their lives, in Chicago, where we lived. His solution was to install a manual shut off valve in the fuel line. The valve was hidden behind the drivers seat & operated by a "T" shaped handle which was removable. His theory was that if someone broke in thru the canvas top & hot wired the ignition, they would only get a block or 2 before the engine would die. The crook would panic & run away.</div><div dir="ltr">Gary H</div><div dir="ltr"> </div><div><br clear="none"></div>

<div>My BJ7, which I have owned since 1984, had lockable door handles with push buttons. When I restored the car in the early 1990’s I had the original door handles reinstalled. I was told that the push buttons were wrong and I wanted my car to be more original.
If I remember correctly the conversion was not a major big deal. </div>
