No, I did not know there was more to it than the tumbler! When I turn the key on, it usually turns on (the guages move), but then it'll usually come disconnected and goes off. To get it to work I have to turn the key about half way on, and it gets a good connection. Then, I take my keys out of the tumbler when I'm driving, because the weight of the key chain will jiggle enough to "short" it out again, and "die on the run." This problem took my a while to figure out that it was just in the switch,and not my carburator or something more major! What do you think? THANKS!
