This is my second legend. I have a 95 LS SE. My first was a 94 GS. Anyway, I'm having issues with my ignition switch. I can start the car but as soon as I release the key it stalls. If I hold it just a little bit before the starter engages, it will stay running. It just started doing this after sitting for a week. Any suggestions?

Sounds like a classic main relay issue. You can get a tested used one from actionjackson or greekpower.

Ditto. The classic symptom of a bad ignition switch.

If it's like the G1, the actual ignition switch is separate from the key system, so you don't have to fool with replacing the key or the tumblers.
