Make sure the engine is grounded to the body. Test your coil packs. Ignitor may be bad as well. Check for blown fuses (in the box & under the dash)Good Luck!

Check what I stated. Is it a new starter? sometimes when you buy a starter, it is just a rebuild. I've put bad- brand new starters on before. Have it tested. Good Luck!

How strong is your battery??? and where is it located?? Check your ignitor and dropping resistor. If you have one. My brothers car has two.

check all of your grounds and then check them again, that's why mine wouldn't fire, once i got the ignitor, and make sure you've got your ignitor and it's good...i don't know if the ignitor continuity test really works, but i found i had a bad one doing that...
