It is dangerous in that it's conceivable someone by accident (or on purpose to set up a suit) could claim that GM installed this device to preclude an accidental crushing of someone's leg or cause the car to lurch out in traffic etc etc. And then by intentional negligence it was circumvented. There is a big difference in negligence and intentional negligence. A REAL BIG DIFFERENCE. Imagine the worst case scenario. A child (maybe a grandchild) is in the car somehow (got in without permission). The child sees the key and puts in in and turns it. The car is pushed into first gear and offers little resistance to movement and there for runs over and crushes a neighbor kid. The neighbor kid's parent is a knowledgeable lawyer........ The stage is set to loose everything you own not to mention the grief anyone would have for being responsible. Like I posted earlier the chances of happening are VERY remote. But then why store gas next to a furnace? Having said my position. I do acknowledge we all have the right to do changes to our car that we feel make it better. I'm done with this thread. Long live the ZR-1.

Re: Engine won't turn over when warm
Thanks for your suggestions. I agree the Safety Switch is for Safety. I bypassed the S/S and problem went away, but I am waiting for a new switch to be delivered. Better to be safe than sorry.

Re: Engine won't turn over when warm
I was informed by ZIP Corvette Parts that they would be receiving new ones in 2 months. I recently phoned to inquire if this was indeed correct and informed No it wasn't that they won't be getting new Safety Switch's for a manual transmission. Guess I will have to look again to obtain one myself. CHEERS!

Re: Engine won't turn over when warm
GM redesigned this ckt in the 92 MY. Any one have a manual that deplicts the changes. It might be easier to convert to that setup. I suspect its some kind of relay configuration (which could give us the 'correct' relay to use.)
