Want to make an inexpensive engine immobilizer for your truck?
Take a 3.5" nail and bend it like so...

Necessity is the mother of invention.

Poverty, of course, is the father.

That's downright brilliant.

Yep, 10 thumbs up! [guitar]

Maybe you meant a 4" nail???
1+2+1=4!!!

Just ribbing you!

That is so cool....[roll]

Cheap, easy and effective, that's my kind of mod.

excellent
 

the truck would start but wouldn't go far...

Mine won't start with the fuel shut off pulled back.

Mine won't either.

Stuck! :cool:

Brilliant !


You guys brought us RUSH, and now this ? I wish I was born in Canada, as I'd be smart too ![laugh]

I wish I was born American so I could have been in the USAF!
Especially Strategic Air Command in the 60's

That's ingenuity at it's finest.

Well Done!!:cheers:

I love cheap and easy things like this to disable your vehicle. On any old car with plug wires, you can just remove the wire from the coil to the distributor, and you can also pop off the distributor cab and remove the rotor.

thats what i used to do when we would take the 1957 chevy to St.Louis to a car show, i would keep the coil wire in my pocket. [coffee]

of corse if they knew anything and looked under the hood they could have pulled off another plug wire and used it as a coil wire and drove off on 7 cyl.
