My ignition can be started with a few different mini keys which I would like to get to just one. Would just changing the old barrel out do it or should I buy a complete ignition barrel setup.

Hi Fiji,

Both the turning and non turning part of the barrel will be worn out. The different keys should push the pins out of alignment and stop the barrel spinning, but have now worn grooves into the outer part which allows it to spin.

At least they're pretty cheap...
