Recently I bought a 94 grand Prix gtp with 194000km, it ran well for the first few weeks but recently only starts after a few tries and rarely on the first try. What happens is I'll turn the ignition sometimes and it will just click once, and I have full battery, everything comes on, the radio, lights, heater, and I'll end up trying a few more times until it starts eventually. When it does start it sounds fine and runs normal. Whats leading me away from the starter and more towards the ignition is that when it does start it seems to be because of the way the key turned. Now the other problem I'm noticing is that when I put my blinkers on either side, my rpm gauge and spedomiter shake with the clicking, and I notice some engine hesitation. Also the analog spedometer seems to be fast compared to the digital HUD. If you have any tips or ideas on where I should start I would greatly appreciate it.
 
you may have a bad ignition switch
check the battery with a load test and the alternator output
do you have the original equipment size tires on the car currently?
 
Yes I have the original tire size on it: 225/60R16
I would just like to know where to start.
