Default switch or cylinder?

I have a 94 cavalier tried to start it, it started like an old chrysler product with a bad capacitor (I think thats the name of the part) where you would hold the key and the car would run release the ignition and the car stops. Thats whats happening with this car. Also the lock won't release the key. Has the switch gone bad and won't return to the lock position or is it the lock cylinder itself? Thanks for your input.
