A new ignition switch is one idea, the second is to install a starter button
somewhere inside the car.  I recommend a new switch, but if you are a maverick
or just very cheap, a push button works quite well.  I used a door bell button
on my Plymouth Cricket back in 1978 or so because the ignition switch on those
is also a steering column lock.....replacing it would have been a nightmare.

Here's the real reason for the email...........

My ignition key turns on the ignition warning light but when I turn it that 
bit further 9 times out of 10 it doesn't turn the starter - so I have to jump

out and start it direct from the solenoid - Any ideas ? Is it just wear and 
tear and time for a new ignition & key ?

Thanks & Regards
