Ignition Switch Problems....Maybe?

[wazoo64]

I need help with an intermitent problem starting my car.
1. On Thursday I went for a drive stopped the car and when I tried to start it back up it wouldnt turn over at all. No click, Nothing. After trying a number of key turns and waiting 10 minutes it finally turned over and fire right up.

2. Today I went for a drive stopped the car and when I tried to start it back up I had a different problem but I think it is related. The starter would turn over but no juice to the plugs. I tried multiple times and then magic it started right up. After starting the car 3 other time today there were no problems.

My gut tells me these are related problems and could be caused by the ingintion switch. I believe it is original. Any help on this one would be great.

Thats what it sounds like to me. Had a similar problem on my old '68 SS elco. and after a starter swap i finally got smart and checked for power to the solenoid. That switch can cause a huge variety of problems.
