    keeping my car from starting

    Hey i have a quick question, i want to keep my car from starting... which fuse would i need to pull in the fuse box? Going somewhere where car thefts are a big problem and i would like to protect my self. Can any one post a picture or something? thanks.

    Not that toyotas are worth stealing, and especially since i have 2 different wheel locks on my tires and a club hehehe...

    efi fuse.

    or you can just put in a kill switch somewhere in the wiring between the ignition and fuel pump.

    well so far, i have 2 different wheel locks on wheels, a club, and i plan on pulling the Efi fuse to keep the car from starting.... all though this trick is only effective if you pull the SPARE fuses too :D

    No matter what you do, if a thief wants your car they are gonna get it.

    But I would agree on the kill switch.

    If its stick make sure its in gear, and make sure the e brake is pulled to make the car harder to tow. Get one of those fake led lights that really bright to sit on your dash (fake car alarm if you dont have one)
