Amazon: New (to me) 1963 Volvo 122

Forum;

Track record has shown that no additional relay is required, but a momentary Start Switch with a minimum 10-15A rating is suggested. As pointed out, it is switching the highly inductive Sol, so the contacts of a switch with any lower rating would not survive for long.

Many thanks, much my thoughts. The momentary switch is substantial enough I think, I wouldn’t have thought the contact area was much different to that within the (redundant) starter contact of the ignition switch.
