Description

Ignition On/Off Kill Switch for GX390 Clones, Predator 420, and Wildcat 460


This Ignition On/Off Kill Switch is a direct replacement for the factory switch commonly found on the blower housing of big block clone engines. Designed to interrupt the ignition circuit, this switch provides a reliable means to quickly and safely stop engine combustion.


It functions by opening the circuit between the ignition coil and engine ground, halting the voltage that powers the spark plug. This action shuts off the engine by cutting ignition. The switch also features a secondary ground wire, making it compatible with remote kill switches such as hand-control setups or “dead man” tether-style safety switches.


Key Features:

  • Replaces stock kill switch on most GX390-style engines
  • Connects easily to remote or tethered kill switches
  • Offers reliable engine shutdown by grounding the ignition coil
  • Ideal for safety, maintenance, or racing use


Compatible With:

  • Honda GX390-based big block clone engines
  • Predator 420
  • Wildcat 460
  • Other similar big block horizontal shaft engines

A must-have for safety and control, this Ignition Kill Switch is ideal for high-performance, utility, and racing applications. Add extra peace of mind and shutdown flexibility to your engine build.

FAQ

Q1: What does this ignition kill switch do?

A: Yes! The secondary ground wire allows you to wire it to a handlebar-mounted kill switch or a dead man/tether safety switch—perfect for racing or safety-critical applications.


Q4: Where is this switch typically mounted?
A: It's usually mounted on the blower housing of the engine for easy access.


Q5: Is it difficult to install?
A: No, installation is simple—just connect the grounding wire from the coil to the switch, then mount it in place. It uses standard wiring found on most small engines.
