Larry, What I want to be "automatic" is to have my electric fuel pump shut off if I'm disabled due to a crash. If the fuel system is compromised the chances of being roasted to death increase greatly. If I'm flying and the engine stops, I'll switch to the backup fuel pump and distributor points, both are wired to a single double pole switch (run off the backup battery). Then I'll go through my emergency check list. I know that the more pieces you add, the greater the chance for a failure but having the fuel pump shut off when there is no oil pressure means bad things have happened or bad things are going to happen.
