If your poor, like myself, and want to slow down a car thief, put in a kill switch.
Run the proper gague wire from the primary on the coil to a switch in the cab. The primary wires are the small wires on the coil. (I can't think of any reason the ECU would throw a trouble code.)
It gets more complicated if you have a separate distributor running to each cylinder, but there's always a point in the electrical system you can splice into, like the starting system.
When completed, just get onto the habit of turning the switch on off, and on.
(I have noticed a lot of old Japanese vehicles being stolen in the Bay Area. Go figure?)
