Battery Cutoff Switch in 29 Model A
Installed "battery cutoff" switch cuts off A starter button but not engine when running. This is not wired correctly, correct?

Not wired correctly. Switch is typically put in the frame to battery post cable/connection, or in the other cable coming out of the battery. Can not be more detailed, do not know if you are running positive ground or negative ground.

It should be in the ground cable irregardless of whether it's positive or negative ground.

Not a good idea. Kill the engine, then open disconnect. With engine running you wont get regulation from the battery, if you increase RPM voltage will go very high. Tough on bulbs etc.
