Surely total removal of the HT leads would be a foolproof method if immobilisation. If somebody wants a car they'll take it. If they're just out for shits and giggles and it won't start, I doubt they're going to start diagnosing and fault finding.

Re: What did you do with your A Series today? Or swap the lt lead with the oil pressure switch lead, then when your helpful joyrider cum AA patrolman come visiting nothing's disconnected under the bonnet. I just think taking your plug leads with you when you leave the car makes you look like a weirdo and I don't want 3 foot of greasy cabling in my handbag.

Re: What did you do with your A Series today? I'm quite sure it could work but i wouldn't use it in a 2CV, with all the potential leaking  every drop on the g-spot could switch your ignition.

Re: What did you do with your A Series today? Found – most – of a rectangular front indicator for my 1970 2CV. One to go! viewtopic.php?f=5&t=5356

Re: What did you do with your A Series today? Free lunch yesterday, in return for parking up at a local market. It is quite a long day though but it was a good lunch.  Attachment:

Now tell me what's the diffrence between a normal relais and this??? (ok. women don't have relais inside)... I think it will work but with a normal relais you achieve exactly the same (but profesional) so why all this????

Re: What did you do with your A Series today? Ah Yes! A quick google and that bl**dy swan's everywhere!  Citroën.fr wrote: Janvier 1931
Création du moteur flottant par Citroën
André Citroën revient des Etats-Unis avec des idées nouvelles dont celle du Moteur Flottant (ou Moteur Floating Power). Une idée qui une fois encore va contribuer à la modernisation de l’Automobile.
Cette innovation consiste à filtrer les vibrations du moteur en interposant, entre celui-ci et le châssis, des blocs élastiques de caoutchouc.
Janvier 1932
Le moteur flottant Citroën
Les C4 G et C6 G (désignées alors MFP pour Moteur Floating Power) sont équipées d'un moteur flottant. Citroën prend une fois de plus de court tous ses concurrents européens. Toutes les Citroën sans exception recevront désormais le Moteur Flottant. I presumed that it was something to do with ' gliding along' but I mistakenly believed it to be for the suspension, not the engine...
