I'm cheap!
That's why I run a manual shut off valve, to stop the flow gas coming out of the gas tank. I have the gas line run into the trunk through the shut-off valve (Like a petcock) and back down to the line going to the engine. The thief may get a ride to your location, but then the driver takes off. The thief steals the car and goes a block or two then it stalls in the middle of the street or intersection. Now, he is in clear view and takes off because people are either blowing their horn at him to get out of the way or he's pulled over and people approach him to ask questions or offer help.
TRUE STORY..... Years ago, my friend "Mouse" had a 55' Chevy with the same attachment. At about 11:00 pm my friend and I saw his car at the side of the road and some "BRO" was trying to get it started. We knew what just happened and approach the guy, offering to "Push" the car to the curb.After that, we grabbed the guy and took him to "The Mouse house", he tried to get away but my buddy Del (360pounds)held him down. When we got to our friends house we banged on the back window and he came out.
We took turns punching this thief until he passed out. About a year later I saw this punk in a Burger King...
He had a bad limp, Hmm....I wonder why?
