Hot start relay?

[Hasis]

Has anyone ever heard of a relay that can be placed on the run between the ignition and the starter in order to boost the power to the starter motor? Apparently such a thing has been used to circumvent the age old CU hot starting problem [obviously as long as lack of oomph in old wiring is the problem and not timing]

Any ideas who might sell such a thing? I'm getting fed up with feeling the need to pray every time I turn the key after filling up on a run [that's only when I've got an operational clutch of course].

And of course, all I had to do was look properly...

I'll be fitting it Friday and then I'll let you know how it works out!

plus postage!

If you feel the need I'm more than prepared for you to call me a naive mug for my failure to shop around?

and in 3...2...1...

NB. JK-pricing related lesson learned I reckon [but £5.22 was the cheapest I found when I did look]
