OK, thanks, I'll check that tomorrow. Thought I had it lined up during installation but maybe it moved, quite possible.

Finally got around to checking, and the neutral safety switch is aligned perfectly. Still no starting joy.

My NEG cable from the battery is pretty pathetic, very corroded. Could a bad ground be to blame? Any other ideas?

Yes, a bad ground could be the problem.
