If the jumper corrects the problem, it points to the ignition switch or the resistor unit under the dash. I had the ignition switch go bad on a '36 I had years ago; took it apart, cleaned it up, and was good to go. Also the word is that repop resistor units are by far inferior to original Ford units. Which do you have?
