The thieves in this area (North Melb public housing) are most likely persons in urgent need of pharmaceuticals !, but there may be a few more serious lads who require transport or a vehicle for 'late night removals' ; Don't sound like the kind of people that would be discouraged by a "this area under surveillance" sticker. If it's pre-EFI, just take the spark plug out each night? You would need to explain the relevance of " pre-Electronic Fuel Injection"; I think the wheel-lock might be less trouble ! Once one has to deal with other than opportunism, ie professional car thieves of increasing sophistication, -the thief may well be an 'off-duty-mechanic.' or tow-truck driver . Who would diagnose a missing spark plug very quickly. Modern car thieves who steal-to-order, mostly up market vehicles, fortunately for me ; simply pull up with car transporter, winch the chosen vehicle on board and drive off; .....gone in 5 min. doesn't even look suspicious !;
