Right after I posted about how great old cars are... I hopped in the 914 and I think I didn't push the key all the way in and turned it. Now it is stuck vertical and I can't turn it to start (I can turn it to on) and I can't turn it back to fully engage the key. I have never disassembled the tumbler and switch so I don't have a good idea of what is happening in there. I don't want to try and force the tumbler back I can't put the key in far enough to get the tumbler to move back to 'off'. Ideas? Do I just have to pull it all apart? Can I if the key can't be fully inserted?
