Default Re: Wiring question?

Shouldn't the ignition and the fuel pump be controlled by the same switch? I've got a separate switch for the fuel pump relay, but it's fed by the ignition circuit, so I can kill the motor and fuel pump together.

I use a Moroso panel with 4 toggle switches - one each for the ignition, water pump, fan and fuel pump.

Shutting off the motor at the master-switch might also be hurting the diodes in the alternator.
