that's /so/ dangerous.  the main relay is designed to switch off if the
motor is inactive for more than 2 seconds.  the way you have it now, you
crash, you flame, you continue pumping high pressure gas into your by
now toasty little engine compartment.  how quickly are you going to drag
yourself out of that flaming wreck?  what about passengers?  fix or
replace the main relay.
