Keyed Ignition on 71' Cherokee

[tx_pilot]

Is this the best ignition there is out there for the Cherokee? Mine seems to be picky about the positioning of the key to get the prop to turn over... When I go to start her up, sometimes I find myself having to find the "sweet spot" on the ignition to get the engine to go a head and crank on over, if this makes any sense? - Didn't the earlier year cherokees have a push button type starter on them?
