My '89 5.0L Mustang GT was stolen off the parking lot of Doctors Hospital in Little Rock, Arkansas in December, 1997. Haven't seen it since.

Popping a coil wire off may not be enough to stop a slick thief. All he would have to do is pull one of the spark plug wires off and swap it into the missing coil wire's place. It would run good enough on 7 cylinders to make the vehicle disappear. ...he probably wouldn't have an extra distributor rotor with him though.
Porbley most are gonna be in a rush to get it! I love a switch under the dash for the coil!

I hate to hear about your Muskrat getting stolen! There is a Thread over on the H.A.M.B 'Pre64 hotrods that has 100s of pages on things ya can do to keep your ride from getting stolen!
