My ignition switch had gotten where I had to jiggle the switch to crank it. I finally took the column apart and found that the switch had started coming away from the cylinder via the screw that holds it to the key cylinder. The crimping that holds it into the metal case was also poor. So, I took a screwdriver and tapped the crimps again and tightened up the screw that held it to the cylinder and those troubles are over.

my ignition switch also was acting weird, so I just put in a push button start. also gave me some time to wire in a fuel pump kill switch.
