Needed a "remote" starter switch to do a compression test. My previous one, described here,

sadly stopped working.

This one is perhaps more readily field-improvisable though.

Picture tells the story. Could only find one croclip so will have to bolt one wire in place for now.

Might wire that nut in place later too.

Worked, but when I was about to use it it occured to me that the switch didn't actually offer much advantage, so I just used the wire as a jumper

Even less colourful and ethnic.
