Everything is put back, starter, bolts everything.

The door chimes whne you open it but I'm wondering that maybe there isn't enough juice to turn the starting motor?

Theres not one inkling of an attempt to start when you turn the key cept for some lights on the dash. I can hear the fuel pump as well.

Low battery? Or something else.... I need this car out of a loaner garage asap.

Thnx!

Doesn't click or anything, going over to check the battery and possibly jump the starter.

You sure you reconnected the hot lead correctly?

checked battery, it was full.

grabbed the light and took one look down at the starter, bingo, connector right there, not plugged in.

Sorry for the alarm fellas but thanks a bunch for the prompt replies. :)

The clutch is regular NAPA oem clutch/pressure plate kit. Pedal seems a bit soft but according to the archives I've read its normal witha new pressure plate.....
