Subject:ignition switch for 87 syncro
From:jax harvell

hi all.

I just bought an 87 syncro.

the ignition switch is a little flaky, in order to start the car sometimes I
have to jiggle the wires leading into the ignition switch. at a certain
point it starts right up. so I think I need a new ignition switch.

I searched at vanagain.com and found an ignition switch for $9, is this what
I need?

also, how difficult is it to change this? is it something that could be
accomplished by rank amateur and a screwdriver? or should I take it to a
shop?

thanks for any info!
