Reply to ""Hot" ignition switch?"

Doug's ignition switch had enough resistance that with the motor running, if he turned on the headlights or rolled down a window, it would kill the motor. Doug runs the drop-in MSD distributor.

I recommend removing current supplying the motor's ignition from the ignition switch, for the same reason you remove the headlights and the fans, because the electronic ignitions are too much load for the ignition switch and will lead to its inevitable failure.

I also recommend that owners of L Panteras route the control circuit for the new ignition relay through the spare rocker switch as it makes a convenient anti-theft device.
