Talkin' about the electrical part..

with their vanagons !

Talked to the knowledgeable and generous Scott of Turbovans, and he said
"look for bad grounds in the starter circuit" and lo & behold, there was a
short in the starter ground. Screw had backed out. I removed the surface
grunge with emery, and used a tiny bit of loc-tite blue on the screw.
And off I go to Bainbridge Island.

But - I'd still like to buy a spare ig switch. Since Cunegonde needs to be
re-keyed anyway, anyone have a used one?
