[TECH] Cis to CIS w/ Knock Box



Patrick:
Your current full throttle switch needs to stay connected as is. It signals
the fuel computer you're at WOT.
For the KS ignition you need to have the throttle body that has both a full
throttle switch and an idle switch off a car that originally had the KS
ignition.
It will have a connector with 3 wires. One is 12V, one goes to pin #8 and
one to pin #6.
As a matter of fact you will need to piggyback your current full throttle
switch (either mechanically or electrically via a relay) on top of the full
throttle switch required for the KS ignition. The ignition WOT switch
provides 12V to the KS box at WOT. The fuel WOT switch grounds the pin on
the fuel box at WOT so you cannot use one switch to signal both fuel and
ignition of WOT unless you set up a relay.
