Matt gives a good location, but misleads in his description -- it is 
only an apparent electrical junction.  More accurately, is is an 
indeterminately timed electrical dis-junction that must only have been 
designed by Lucas, Prince of Darkness. Available as standard equipment 
on Late Models -- Earlies have their disconnector hidden in the firewall 
plug.
