Default 36 Steer column electrical problem

Drove the 36 yesterday evening, have not drove after dark this year and I found that I had a engine stall problem. The motor would start back up but something was just not right. I was showing a man the head lights before I headed home to find out which position was high and low beam and the Horn would sound as I turned the light switch. Left lights on and traveled home, slow down and motor would stop and I would place in gear quickly and start motor and go on. Checked car this morning and no power on the on/off column switch. Checked the shut off switch and it was hot but not the panel under dash. Rotated the light switch and no dash lights. When I checked again I had power and I started engine. I can turn light switch and kill all power/engine. Move light switch back and forth several times and have power back again, anyone have this problem or thoughts about electrical connections at end of column?? thanks Bruce
