it may work out cheaper to have a locksmith cut new keys for you, talk to one & explain the situation & see what can be done, if you change the ignition switch you will have to change all the door locks & the trunk lock as well.........hope this helps......cheers.

You'll need to lower the steering column. It is usually mounted on top of the steering column, with 2 screws, and a couple of plugs plugging into it. Usually down towards the firewall.

I am not sure of the correct tool name but it is a female torx with a male pin in the center. You have to remove the cover, and then you should see the screws on the left side, not the ignition cylinder side,. I had to change one from a pontiac grand prix and I had to go buy a set of the male/female torx to change it. After I changed it, I changed the screws to phillips so if the ignition switch needed changed again, I only needed a screw driver.

did you flood if so change iol and filter remove plugs put some oil in each cylinder then turn over about 12 times put new plugs in and should fire

It should be purple

Pontiac had problems with ignition switches i a few models. More than likely it is bad.

This should help
