Installing a solid state Battery Isolator

Hi all,

I bought one of these

CARTEK Tech-info

the standard model.
So I have a question about the best way to install it on the Renesis.
I was thinking that the best way to do it is to cut the injectors instead the alternator.
So no fuel -> instant engine stop.
That to avoid flooding too...

But, in fact, we tried to install it like this and this type of installation seems not to work: when the car is running at idle, pushing the button, doesn't stop the engine.
These days I don't really have time to study more deeply the e.c. so I ask the question here: there is a reason why cutting the injectors doesn't stop the engine?

So the question raises: what the best solution to stop the engine with the cutoff ?

Cut the alternator
Cut the fuel pump
Cut the injectors

Thanking you in advance

Regards
