Bob, I've been trying to think of things that would be nice to have on the controller. A key code would be nice as that would meet insurance regs for fuel lockout, but I think an override would nice to have say for tuning etc. much like a coded radio. I think you've covered all the other features required. Let us know when you need a QA tester, I'd be glad to help.

I can pretty well build this to be as complicated or simple as anyone wants, so can anyone who might be interested please email me telling me what you would be looking for in a fuel pump controller. The simplest option would be to make one that simply runs the pump when the ignition is turned on, and then turns it off if the engine is left not running for a certain ammount of time (eg 3 seconds). If anyone wanted it, I could fairly easily add features like a keypad so that you had to enter a pin number before the pumps would start (for security), an input to kill the pumps if you hit a kill switch, an input to kill the pumps if a sensor told the controller that you had rolled the car etc etc. I am not sure what the commercial units are worth, but I think that I could probably get a fairly basic one going for maybe $40-$50. Im not looking to rip anyone off and make a packet, I will probably be needing peoples help in the future (if I can finally find a decent z). -- Best regards, Bob mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
