Does anyone in striking distance of San Diego have a spare
inertial engagement starter for a Spridget they'd like to sell?
The one in my son's car has developed a dead spot, and the Moss
unit is very very pricey. NAPA has a rebuilt one for a reasonable
price, which I'll get if there's nothing else available.
