Ignition question

[eighty9hatch]

I don't know if the problem is the ignition switch or the the lock cylinder on the column. When the car is running, it will die then come right back on. I noticed if I wiggle the key a little that it will stop doing it for awile. Any info is appreciated.

tumbler set cured my problem, alot of times the whole switch needs replaced

Replace the electrical part of the switch. At one time, there was a FREE recall on Ford ignition switches. They overheat and sometimes catch fire.
