I HAVE A 1989 5.0 STICK THAT WILL START UP NO PROBLEM, THE PROBLEM I DO HAVE IS IF I TURN TO HARD OR IF MY KNEE HITS THE BOTTOM OF COLUMN OR EVEN IF I HIT THE STEERING WHEEL IT WILL SHUT OFF BUT SOMETIMES I CAN SAVE IT BY TURNING THE IGNITION SWITCH OVER A LITTLE

MY QUESTION IS IS MY IGNITION SWITCH CYLINDER THATS FAULTY OR IS IT SOMETHING ELSE

IM STARTING TO GET FRUSTRATED [Mad]

sounds like your ignition switch the white one under the column is goin on and off caused by your steering column being loose.
take off all the covers and the turn signal switch, behind there u will c 2 bolts one on top one at the bottom tighten those up and u should b straight

take the plastic covering off (should only take a phillips screwdriver). check if any wires are melted or backing out of their connectors (ignition switch)

It's NOT illegal. It's just frowned upon, like masturbating on an airplane.
