Sup guys,

Im new to this forum but always post on other 240 forums. Recently I swapped out my radiator. After I was done, I took it for a spin and everything seemed okay until I pulled into the gas station to fill-up. It was bogging out and wanted to cut off. I turned off the engine and filled up, adding some injector cleaner too. Started her up and she ran fine until I got home.

When I got home, I fooled around with the front harness near the injectors and the coolant sensor. The car then shuts off and when I attempted to start it, it wouldn't. I would just hear ONE click noise and that's it. It doesn't turnover or crank. I swapped out the battery and that wasn't the problem. I also tried to push start the thing and nothing. I need a car for school right now and I can't afford to tow it to a mechanic right now. Can someone help me bring back my 240 to life? Thanks a bunch, Alex :help

too much it could be, with such little detail. After doing the radiator, you sure everything is plugged in correctly? Something might have messed up, thats probably it.Will it jump start? Did you check it with a voltmeter to see if your getting enough power and your grounds are all good? Because a bad ground would cause it not to start. check your fuses as well?

IF all of that is good then it's more than likely your starter, try tapping the starter and seeinf if it starts.

Start with that and get back, we'll go from there.
