anyway im laughin but he isnt - any ideas of wut the problem would me - ???

 

If you pull the battery, it wont turn off the car, unless the altenator is dead.

You'll have to cut off its air supply, or pull the coil (coils for VE), or maybe use a vacuum line stick it on the EGR, that should kill the car too and not require any tools aswell.

 

Does he have a remote start on the car?
and pull the fuel pump fuse to kill the car

 

Could be a bad ignition relay. When you try the turn off the car, give the relay(s) a few light wacks.

 

hes right pulling the battery will NOT turn the car off the alternator will keep it running go under the dash to the fuses and find the one labeled fuel pump - pull it. check the ignition relay like posted before

 

Well, he may not have much of an alternator now. How do you do that while the engine is running?!!!!
