Sherlock, I see no reason to change the NSS if it's functioning OK, but if you DO elect to change it because of it's age I would definitely do the two switches one at a time, getting the first one fully adjusted and functioning right before taking the second one off. It makes no sense to be chasing two adjustable devices in the same circuit, trying to figure out which is the reason for your no crank status.
As an aircraft mechanic, I can tell you that right there is some solid advise!Quote:

The switch is at the other end (bottom) of the column.
Exploded View with Legend - Tilt Parts For Steering Columns | Steering Column Services See Part # 80, on top of the column, just below the mount to the dash for support.
Look for sloppiness in the shift linkage-with a 43 year old car probably enough wear in the physical( Non-Electric) parts that the electrical components can't do there job.
Hi guys, first off all, thanks a lot for all your help and time :-) I manage to find the switch, pretty easy to come to :-)
But I don't know how to adjust it, I loosened the screw, the key on lock, but couldnt see "the 2nd detent position" as NTFDAY wrote. Instead I put the key in on, at put the switch as far away from the steering wheel as possible. The ignition now works a bit better, but not perfect.
Could you walk me through an adjustement ? My Manuel says I should se the 2nd detent or use a small plastic clip that comes with a new switch :-)

Hi Denny
Thanks a lot for the long post :)
Why remove the neg cable ?
Just for clarification:
Lose the screws, ignition in "on", push the switch against the spring, and let it glide back, and tighten the screws?
I'm sorry but i don't see how put a paperclip down the hole, would help adjust the swich? Can i feel when it in the right position? I don't have the little black plate label "right position" on my switch :)
Oops :o:o Replied, but then realized you were just asking Denny. ;) **)
