Thanks for you thoughts on this, LAB. I agree on all points. After cleaning the connections and tightening up the ignition switch, all systems now appears to be in proper order. Never a bad idea to go over the machine thoroughly anyway and it was worthwhile after finding the (potential) HT issue. On to the next issue; the source of that solitary oil drop ... .

Just tightening the ignition switch in its bracket is not sufficient. You should open it up by gently prying the tags holding the casing together. The interior contacts get amazingly crudded up and flaky contact connections are a common reported issue. I'm sure the "crud scoop" design of the vinyl sheath goes a long way to contributing deritous to the switch.
