Thanks 180. The lock cylinder problem, it locks when I get to the start position (can't turn starter on).Then their are times it does turn the starter on but stick in that position and the car will not start (possible safety to prevent starter damage ?), i manually have to turn the key to the left to stop the starter.At first I thought it was just a squirt of lock ease fix, but i'm way beyond that now.That "sticky ignition fix"article will be a lot of help. thanks again,LARRY
