car wont shut off........... !

1986 TransAm.........When I go to shut the car off, I can turn the key back to off, but the car will stay running for about 10 seconds. Not pre-ignition. It doesn't run on, it will shut dead off but only after a delay. Could this be a rod to ignition switch on the tilt steering column below? Everything else is ok............thanks for any insight !

Only one way to find out
Check to make sure the linkage is not binding up somewhere on it's way to the switch
