I figured this was a good place for this I DID find something

Drew that sounds like your problem could be the ignition switch (they die after 40 years) or a bad connection in the connector on the column


It is the switch , and it is only 5 years old

The pot metal body has gotten loose with the plastic wiring harness and when I would turn the key it would flex and separate,and loose connection/contact

and the spring inside is knackered so a new one is on order I hope it lasts longer than 5 friggin years for crying out loud

I am right sometimes then.

Yes indeed the fact is I posted this and it made me think and not assume the switch was bad

I thought it might have been the MSD box or something else but since the switch was only 5 years old how could it be bad? ...............well it was bad ,so good on you Dave

at least you can get new

mine is held together with screws from cheap sun glasses and features a cable tie and some bits of paperclip...

Yes I almost did that , and in fact since the units like to fail I want to do some thing to give the new one more life
