Ok, I got lucky it was on the Front Seat of a 'Work In Progress' car in the 
garage. The Fomoco Part number on the box is -

E1AZ-9341-B 
SWITCH WAP
MADE IN ENGLAND

Comes with connectors.

Bob -

I think Ford makes the part I have, I don't have the Fomoco part number for the 
inertia switch handy, But I have one going in the Tiger down the road with the 
EFI and likely will retrofit to another car. I got mine from HRP world, I'm 
sure other places have the same part. If I dig up the box I can post the Ford 
number. Not inexpensive, but might be one of those life saver things...

It is an odd thing that looks like it would trip easy, but used in racing so 
must be somewhat stable.

I think it is a Normally closed circuit, so it would be wired inline with your 
fuel pump and iginition relays. I don't know if I would run it inline of the 
pump as some of the pumps do draw a good amount of current and not sure the 
capacity of the switch. I also read somewhere (Might be the hrp site) that it 
should be mounted near the driver for easy reset...

Who has added an inertia switch to their pump wiring to automatically shut 
off the fuel pump in the event of an accident? What switch did you use? How 
big is it? I think I recall someone saying they had used one from a Ford 
pickup... ? Tips, tricks, advice or installation instruction? Wiring 
schematic?

TIA
