I assume that's the 6V values, Russ.
Those ignition/starter switches have a hard life.  The relay by the battery is
useful to save those, particularly if they are getting a bit close to worn out.
It's just removing one weak link, but I stand by the cleaning up routine in the
starter motor as the job that will do the most good.
