Archived from groups: alt>autos>toyota>trucks (more info?)
Hello; I have a New 2008 Tacoma, in the book, I see what is described as a
clutch by-pass switch, I have 2 wheel drive 6 cyl. 6 speed Manual trans.
How does this work and can I install it without much trouble?

The switch simply lets you crank the starter without depressing the
clutch pedal.

It can be useful four wheeling, when you need to start the truck in
gear to get out of a very low traction situation.

What's the point?

Why expose yourself to liability issues that arise out of defeating an
important safety device?
