I know they have immobiliser built in etc but my car will be in storage soon and I wont be around. Call it peace of mind. I want to isolate the fuel pump and was wondering 2 questions. 1: has anybody done this before?2: where abouts in the ute is the fuel pump? In the back around the tank hey?Its a 2012 FG XR6T Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/85671-fg-xr6t-ute-cut-off-switch/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your that worried why not remove the coils and put garnish back on. Engine looks normal, just wont work.

That or install an additional fuse within the wire which you can remove.Benny.
