Recently the starter switch seemed to fail.  I got in it and no power
nothing.  I put my hand under the switch and pushed on the wires, then it
started up and ran.

 

Yesterday again no power.  We pushed the car across the alley and over a few
bumps into my driveway.  Then it had power.

 

Does it sound like the switch is bad?  Likely it's the original switch.  The
car did sit for 25 years in a warehouse before I got it about 10 years ago.

 

Should I get another switch?  Try to repair the existing?  Maybe take it
apart (can I do that?) and clean it?

 

Anyone run into this?
