When the ignition switch busted on my '89 Beretta, my mechanic had me bring it into his shop. (It was running at the time.) To shut off the car he simply removed the negative post from the battery; the car stalled immediately.

However my '84 Trans Am will run without a battery. I think it all depends on how much the computer controls the operation of the engine.
