Distributor Problem????

[kwhizz]

I think I found part or all of the problem........I took the Yellow car for a ride to Volo on Sunday to walk thru the Museum (indoor car lot).......I stopped for gas just after leaving Volo and when I went to start the car, it started Immediately but shut off as soon as the Key went from Start to On.....Tried and Tried but the same results....so I knew that there was no power to the distributor in the run position.........Anyhow, I drove the car home holding the key in between start on on....Tonight I checked everything out and found that the Battery Terminal on the Ignition Switch was melted on that terminal only.....it seems that the melted plastic became an insulator and contact was lost thru the battery wire.....it was a new Ignition Switch, and all new wires......Is it possible that by holding the key in that position for 45 minutes caused the melting and there is still a problem elsewhere or???????????
Had to order a new Switch (GM) this time......maybe the aftermarket switch was the problem.......Any ideas from you "Sparky" guy's

By the way Volo had 4 Yenko cars there....."Real" ...Of course..........LOL
