swtch repair

Post by two-stroke-brit »

hi everyone ,looking for help in repairing the stater button from my honda turbo.

i got a replacement only to find it was also half broken .(waiting to fall out).
i was thinking of getting a pin of the same size and fixing it to the old switch with jb weld or the like.
but i wonder if it will take the leverage when in use.
i might try and drill a smaller hole in the new pin and make a sort of tee shaped pin.
clutching at straws here as you can see.
any help appreciated as always.

had to make a pivot block and drill and pin and epoxy in place but it works and should last at least as long as the original.

If at first you don't succeed, just get a bigger hammer !
