Did your ignition barrel have excessive play in it?

No.. The wiring part of it is fixed to the end if the barrel so should matter.. Quickest cheapest fix is a push button...job done. Don't want to risk another starter...

Ned 

Can you tell me what make and model of push button you fitted and at the risk of a smart answer, where did you mount it ?

Cheers
