I don't know about by-passing the tilt switch. "IF" you should ever drop your X and can't get to it in time, it could keep running and starve for oil thus ruining your motor. I guess that doing it for "test" purposes would be o.k., but for a "fix" I'd recommend not doing it.... Replace it with a new one.
Hmmm.. Just re-read your post... So you fixxed your tilt switch? It will still function should you drop the X? I'm so easily confused...
