Hi all
Re. Dead ignition..
Checked out the solenoid (see previous mail) and everything is fine,
managed to get it 'clicking' and the starter turning...
So traced my electrical fault to the ignition switch which is the old
type on a 1500 (ie down the bottom of the steering shaft) anyhow, the
switch has had its day and is truly knackered...
So how easy is it to drill out those shear bolts while the collumn is
still in the car, I would like to not have to remove the whole column if
I can help it...
Any hints as to the best way to drill them out?
Thanks for any help
Cheers
Tim
