however, if it is wired into the coil the engine will crank but not turn over. This way a)they are more likely to think it just has a problem starting and b)there is a chance you will here the truck cranking and be able to catch the bastard.
Your thieves troubleshoot? heheh you might end up with a better running car after they try to steal it!
