Title: disable ignition
Post by: eric16v on May 07, 2011, 04:26:44 PM

so I'm in the process of installing some mustang injectors. Got all the way put back together and noticed a leak I believe between injector 3 or 4. I couldn't really tell. So i'm wondering if there is away to disable the ignition with out cutting power to the pump so i can crank the engine and fuel pump with the rail in place and hopefully find the leak.

Pull the spark plug wires off and crank the engine over.
