Hi,
My friends car is starting, and running fine. When you turn the key off... the car keeps running.

To turn it off, we pulled the distrubutor wire, we also have to disconnect the battery or the accessory lights remain on.

Idea's? Trouble in the ignition switch?

Thank you

$125 dollars later, my friend's car was fixed. You were right on the "money" it was in the ignition switch. Thank you very much.
