78 ignition switch sticks

The ignition switch on my 78 is hard to turn back on after being in the lock position. Any quick fixes for this or is a new switch needed? How difficult is it to install new one.

thanks, Lonzoo

I recently had mine lockup. Jim Shea linked me to his pages lots of good info there. Replaced the Key Lock Cylinder work great now. Here is the link to his website:
