I turn the key, nothin happens but a click and a louder click from the transmission. The motor isn't locked up because I could turn it by the torque converter by hand and also; when I did that I could feel the air coming from the spark plug holes. (That was before I connected the motor to the transmission. So, yeah I replaced starter and battery. Still nothing, lights and **** work fine. I just hear a loud click when I turn the key. Fuel pump is working cause I forgot to plug it earlier and gas spilled everywhere. Anyone help?

(Sry delete the one in the convertible section)

So your starter is not turning over? If so, very simple situation. Either your battery is too weak or you are not getting positive or negative to the starter. Them most common problem is the clutch interlock switch on the clutch pedal. Get a digital mulimeter and test the small wire going to starter for 12v positive. Use volts dc.

Have you tried push starting it or boosting battery?
