Remote starter for model A?

[bluesman31]

I am playing around under the hood troubleshooting an engine that won't start. Is There any way to hook up some kind of remote starter switch to the old girl?

It would be nice not to need 2 people every time I want to be under the hood playing with the ignition while someone else turns her over.

That would require a solenoid that would replace the stock A starter switch, not an insurmountable thing to do.

Why can't you just reach over and push down on the starter rod? If you do it from the passenger side you can sometimes get a nice tickle in your armpit from the spark plug connectors.

That's what kids are for, isn't it?

It's pretty much what I do whenever I need to turn the engine over when troubleshooting (most commonly if there appears to be missing spark - seems to happen about once a year).
