	you can get cut-off switches that connect to the the oil lines - if the engine stalls and loses oil pressure they cut power to the fuel pump. www.europaspares.com/FUEL_SYSTEM_PARTS/FUEL_PUMPS/FUEL_PUMP_CUT_OFF_SWITCH___FPA907__2541.html

	Late 106s/ and all Saxos have easy to find and pilfer cutoff switches (they top right of engine bay) that will handle 15 amps without a relay, and they are reliable.
