Or more likely do I need to replace whole lock cylinder housing as well as getting a new key and tumbler? Can you mix old and new parts dealing with the lock cylinder and ignition switch? Everything works fine until I get to ignition switch.
Are you saying you cannot turn the key to all positions?

You think you messed something up with the tumblers?

If this is an automatic is the interlock cable plugged into the switch assy. properly and is the shift lever in park? If the key is in the run position see if you can shift to neutral.
