ok but the intermitant cranking is only w/key I can just it with a screwdriver and it cranks every time. I have had the ign switch cleaned properly by an electrition ("just the back side w/the wires" not the whole key switch) could the problem be in the key switch?
no spark left

It is unlikely. When you turn the key it turns a flat rod (a bit like a flat head screwdriver) at the back of the barrel. This turns in a slot on the switch. If you can feel the lock 'click' through positions 1 (no dash lights), position 2 (dash lights on) and position 3 (starter) which is sprung and will return when released. It should be fine. If the switch has been tested it sounds like the wire to the starter solonoid is breaking down or the terminal on the starter is dirty/corroded.
will clean every thing get a rotor -n- cap try a new battery and let you know how it goes. again thank you so much for all your help with my problems, and if I ever make to the UK I will buy you a drink or something.

How are you testing the spark at the plugs?
