I've never heard of it actually kicking in on a Cobra but it is very common on the Lightning's to activate while racing on the 1-2 shift. The easiest way to turn it off is to simply unplug the electrical connector at the top of the valve. <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
