Hi Bob,
You'd expect that to be the case wouldn't you. But according to the FSM the ignition circuit gets disabled by disconnecting the crank position sensor. I get the impression from what I have read so far that the ignition electronics behave a little bit like an amplifier that can add in delay.
The FSM also says to disable the fuel pump relay so I don't see what this magic bit of wire is meant to do.
May be there's more to these spark ignition engines - but as far as I can tell no spark = no bang; no fuel = no bang...
