[TR] Inertia switch

[Steve Kirby]

Jim,

Firstly you should be aware of the difference between and inertia and a rollover switch.  Both will cut the fuel pump, but an inertial switch will cut the pump during a rollover OR when the car is hit hard in an accident.  Roll over switch is not as sensitive and will only cut the power on rollover.

A very nice aftermarket unit is Painless Performance #80160.  You can find it on Summit Racing and maybe cheaper elsewhere.  It is sold under different brands.  I think made in Italy by Facet.

i went to the junkyard and pulled the inertia switches from some tauruses and sables. as I recall, 3 bucks each.

The rubber cover from the tr3 solenoid fits the reset button well if you mount outside the interior. I did that and sealed with silicone any other joints.

List,
Installing aftermarket Delphi electric fuel pump for low flow output on my 75 TR6 Diablo project car and thought I should install an inertia switch for safety measure.   Any recommendations on good aftermarket inertia switch?
Thanks
