"You will need to "jump&#3

"You will need to "jump" the solenoid (use a remote starter switch - you can get one from autozone for about 8 bucks) clip the wires on the remote switch to the large Pos(+) battery post and to the small terminal marked with an "S". Disconnect the wires that are on the key switch. If I'm not mistaken, there are 2 specific wires that hook to the switch and when the key is turned to the off position they kill the ignition."
