heres the deal. when i turn the key (73 1.7) the starter will only turn intermittently, other times dead silence car has full power headlights,wipers radio, 12volts on the meter, i can hear the fuel pump, can push start it every time. is it just the ignition switch, which is original, loose and very flaky or am i in for an electrical gremlin adventure?

I have a 73 and had the same trouble, on an off chance I spliced those two yellow wires together and now I have sparks so you might want to try that. Sadly other issues are keeping my car off the road (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif)
