No, I splice one 1N4007 diode into the + lead of the Opto-Kill output.
Actually, I put one in the positive and one into the negative on mine. It helps with any kickback voltage from the ignition. For those that don't remember, this is a drawing I posted a while back but I made some changes to the way I hooked it up. This is exactly how I have mine.
