It would be easiest just to replace the ignition. Since no other locks share the key, replacing it wouldn't make a difference. Using the extractor could be an excercise in frustration. Depending on how deep, what cuts are on the key, how much tension the springs are putting on the broken piece, and what kind of extractor you are using. Will depend on how to use the extractor, if you're even using the right extractor for the situation. You twist spiral extractors. Hook extractors are made to pass the key then hook as pulling out. Extractor pliers grab the broken bits.
You will need to remove the retaining ring at the top of your 1998 Chevy Lumina ignition switch. Slide the ignition switch out. Remove the wiring harness.
I need a Diagram for a 1995 Chevy Lumina iginition switch??

No, there is no information suggests that a 1996 Buick Century 231 will fit into a 1999 Chevy Lumina.
your key is probably wore out and tumblers are not moving
Changing the ignition coil on a 1993 Chevy Lumina could be a hard and daunting task to someone who is unfamiliar with cars. It would be much easier and faster to take the car to a mechanic where they would have a better understanding and knowledge of the car and the parts it needs.
The ignition timing on your vehicle is not adjustable. It is set according to driving conditions by the Powertrain Control Module, or PCM. There should be a sticker under the hood with this information.
Chevy Lumina has not the carborator.
All together depending on where you go parts and labor about 722.00 : - )
I paid $35 for a new key with the chip in it.
If you have disributorless ignition it will be mounted under the coil pack . If you vehicle still has a distributor it will be in the dist.
