  • help, car won't start!

    it happened 2 days ago, i was at the store when i get in the car and nothing happens. the engine didn't even try to start. i open the hood, and have a friend try and start it, and hear little clicks coming from what seems to be the fuse box. open it up and just move the fuses/relays and car starts. i got it home, and its been stuck there now. fuses are good, replaced starter and ignition relays, had battery checked, so all that is fine. radio, lights, everything comes on, but all u hear is a clicking from somewhere around the fusebox area and i hear clicking coming from somewhere else in the engine area but can't find where. i've gotten it to turn on maybe once yesterday, but that was it. now i can't even get it to a mechanic. i've been doing searches and i think its a bad starter, but want to get your input on this. i'm pretty busy today so i won't use the car, already have rides where i got to go, but will check the boards later tonight for possible solutions. if it is the starter, how hard is it to replace it?? should i do it myself or take it to a mechanic? what kind of prices am i looking at?? anyways, look forward to everyone's input

      gotta check out the ignition side of things. if not spark then no vroom... what you are describing sounds a lot like my 89 camoaro. I had the whole coils and shizel reworked and repaired to brand new car worked fine. then the breaks were stickin. i said the hell with this car. i F-in sold that POS. im glad i finally got rid of it. Check it out.
