This is my first gas engine. I read the instructions, found out that a manual and servo operated kill switch are recommended. No information is given on how to do this.
My question is how do I do this?

With electronic ignition, you put the switch in series with one of the power leads from the battery pack. When the switch is open, the engine quits. Usually, you use two switches, one manual and one servo operated. They are both in series with the power lead.

Thank you Bax. I will break out the wire cutters and make the necessary modifications.

In another thread you were asked about an adapter to install a spinner on the engine. Through the process of elimination I found that the engine prop bolt is 8 mm X 1.25 pitch. At my local hardware store I purchased a 8mm X 1.25 pitch X 55 mm bolt and suitable nut for $2.00.
I cut the head off the bolt leaving a threaded stud and found a tru turn adapter tt-0822A fits. Spinner mounting problem solved.
