[Diy_efi] Key-On Power for 7730

[Joe Boucher]

How about this idea.  Install a start button that is energized when the key
is in the on position.  Turn key to on, press starter button.

That's kinda cool.  I like starter buttons.

The Honda S2000 has one and a couple of other high end, late model cars.
Probably not something you would casually find in a  a low end junkyard.

But it sounds like you don't have problem other than finding the key.

This, folks, appears to be true here, too.  I basically made a little test
light circuit to see if there was an obvious break in the circuit between
IGN-1 and IGN-2.  Using an 1187 dash light, I wired I1 and I2 (and ACC just
for fun) together with a 9V battery.  I could not see any dimming of the
bulb between run and start, regardless of how fast or slow I turned the key.

Turning the key was the big problem, as I had to disassemble the dang lock
tumbler to make the motion consistent.  Kind of hated to do that, as 1969
ignition cylinders are unique (last year for dash-mounting for Mopar) but
I've got NO idea where the key for that sucker is.  Not much of a
theft-deterrent at this point.

Thanks, Rick, Tom, Tim, Will, and Lee for all the guidance.  Maybe I'll
finally get these last two wires done this weekend!

BBM. (Make Before Break vs. Break Before Make)
