I thought I might, till the symptoms changed 700 1987

...and yes the warning lights do come on when it dies..."

In your Previous Thread you said:
"... NO THE WARNING LIGHTS DONT COME ON AND YES THE TACH FALLS TO ZERO. IT JUST LIKE IF I TURNED THE KEY OFF,"

My response then (10/19) was:
"...there should be warning lights, with the key still in the ON position.
Could be the switch part is going iffy, which IS like turning the key off.
It's known to happen after 20 years or so."

By "switch part" I was referring to the replaceable part that actually switches the voltage (shown below) when the Key is ON, and is known to fail intermittently. I thought this part could be the source of the problem as you describe it.

But today I just noticed you now say "...yes the warning lights do come on". So "none of the above" applies here. I'll leave the pic and price info below in case anybody's looking for an ignition switch.
