Joe, There is either a loose connection in the wiring of the switch or the inside of the ignition switch is gunked with dirt (that was my trouble). Buy a spray can of electrical contact cleaner & spray away inside the switch through the slot where the key goes. After spraying, insert key & work back & forth as if to start the car & spray again. Don't be shy about the amount you use, although you may want to use a rag or container to catch the excess. If the trouble persists, look for the loose connection. I usally try the simple approach first. Tom '68 Fastback (Thumper) '70 Bug ------------------------------------------------------------------- Search old messages on the Web!
