Can't say I've ever done this, but I would ask - how hard do you stomp on the brakes? Are inertia switches calibrated for that? On the other hand, an oik-pressure-drop switch must have an override circuit tied to the ignition key, possibly the accessories position, so that it will generate fule pressure when the engine is first started. > and will an MGB Inertia Switch work Only if you expect your SpitSix to have the inertia of an MGB. They need a dedicated switch to keep it all under control. You probably won't. > (there are several available on eBay). And why do you suppose there are so many available? :-) -- Just trying to help. -- Jim Muller [email protected] '80 Spitfire, '70 GT6+ _______________________________________________ Support Team.Net http://www.team.net/donate.html [email protected] http://autox.team.net/mailman/listinfo/spitfires http://www.team.net/archive
