Maybe a bad ground was what i was thinking...Anyone??? Oh im running a small oddesy battery if that matters..

Usually when the starter just clicks the battery is on the way out or has low voltage.

No everything was tight..But ill be putting a new ground on it anyways..Just in case ya know..Im starting to think its a weak battery..It was harder to start the longer i would go without starting her up...If i drove the car the next day after i starter her,It would start up just fine..First try.But i never drive this car...For sometimes months at a time.
