It used to be part of a Suzuki service schedule to swop the plugs 1 to 4 and 2 to 3 to even out the spark erosion wear

That collar and bearing usually need a hydraulic press to remove and from memory there is a small cross section O ring between collar and bearing but its not shown in any books. Honda use to recommend changing shaft with bearing and the cost extra used to be negligable

In that cas the fuse box itself is suspect as the clips get warm, loose tension on the fuse end, get warmer still, melt the plastic and even the solder connections.
Also ignition switches have been known to give intermittent contact 15
