Re: Stuck Ignition - still
JC; I tried what you suggested and pulled out and checked the ignition switch at the bottom of the linkage rod - the ignition switch slides with no problem - it's the linkage rod that is sticking. As i noted before, it will slide or rotate into the start position, and it will rotate back to the "on" position, but the linkage rod and key will not rotate back to the "off" position. I suspect the little "release" lever might be the culprit, but I don't know how to access it. My Haynes book is't much help on this subject. Must I pull the wheel to get down in the column housing?
By the way, I assume it's because of year model differences, but my '84's linkage and ignition switch was not on the left side of the column, but on top! I had to pull about 6 bolts and drop the column to access it - fairly simple.
