ignition switch

[Honest Abe]

I would like to find an ignition switch for my 2200 that uses a REAL key, not a modified screwdriver. Want to keep unauthorized people from using my mower. Looked around, no can find. My next thought was to add a regular switch that does use a normal key in line from the ignition switch to keep it from starting. I think the red wire would be the one to interupt.
Has anyone else traveled this road ?

do the people you are trying to prevent have normal access to this mower? Perhaps a marine battery lockout disconnect would be quicker, cheaper and serve the purpose. Just a thought . . . . . .
