Got a bit of time and dollars in my truck and have been thinking about trying to fend against potential fires by installing a kill switch immediately after both batteries, before power goes ANYWHERE.
Can anyone comment on how this could be done? I'd use the switch any time I was not in the truck for more than a few minutes. I've seen at least one car smoking in the parking lot due to a stuck starter (FD got it out) and am aware of many dash fires in these '87-'91 Ford trucks and even up to the '94 model year.
I don't mind resetting my clock or driving with it wrong, but I'd sure mind if my truck became toasty fried--especially if that Cummins "610" goes in it next year.
