Thanks is there any way of testing it before I buy one??? Would it still crank if the switch has gone?? There is no delay in turning the key and the engine attempting to start???

without sounding too stupid, where do you mean by ignition switch?? Where is it based? as I said earlier the ignition barrel has been changed. Thanks for the posts though Keep them coming Rob
