I had a challenge last Sat. My Hawk had been setting for a week and was a little hard to start it would start and start and die like it was cold. Started it and backed out of driveway and turned to leave and it died cranked and died cranked and died several times.Hooked up timing light and discovered no fire after the switch was release from the crank position. I hot wired to coil and the car started and ran, the switch was not flowing current in the run position to the coil. I have seen this symptom many times on cars that use a ballast resistor but I am running 12 volts straight from the ignition switch to the HEI dist that I have installed. In all my years I have never had an Iginition switch go bad.I guess 57 years is the life .
