GRRR! gettin aggrivated

Well, my car wouldnt start so I thought it needed a fuel pump. $200 and hours later, no fix.

But I did find what it was (kinda). You have to turn the key and hold it ALL THE WAY for it to stay running. What could it be? Do I need a new ignition?

It sounds like a bad ignition switch.

Lesson learned. You diagnose and troubleshoot before replacing parts.
