Thanks for sharing your experience, Jim. It gives me confidence. The new switch is ordered, and it can go on the shelf with some other stuff I have ratholed against possible future need.
Someone asked me if I intended to keep/drive the Benz until my son takes it away from me, and I said yes. That's how I'm thinking. I have a head gasket set, a starter, and alternator, a radiator, and many small parts ratholed. Fourway switch will fit right in. I actually have a pretty intense electrical day planned for January 1 - when I intend to buff all the contacts in the fuse box and buff and install new fuses. According to some of what I've read, that ought to fix some electrical problems, maybe inclucing some I don't even know I have. Bought a new Dremel in a box with a flex shaft and two cup brushes for this project. As an indication of how important I think it is, my usual stle wouild be to try to buy one really cheap at a pawnshop. I just marched into the tool place and bought this one. BTDT (?) Goes past me. Please interpret. Thanks again for your experience.
