hey all,

i remember someone posting a while back on the implications of what
Gary describes below, spraying contact cleaner on the ignition switch
directly. now, i have searched the archives but like many, cannot find
the thread.

with my current "lack of starting" problem, would this even be an
option? i am only worried that i will ruin my ignition if "it" is ok,
and it is my starter that is burnt up- thus meaning i replace both in
the end. probably should have said that out loud as i know "AG" is
always listening.

any help here would be great.

sincerely,

matt ludwig.
