Re: CAR WONT START AHHH =0!!!

when you say click do you mean like an electrical zap. is it one click or does it keep clicking. most likely your starter or maybe your batt is just low. im bout to head out to the jy right now to get a lt1 starter.

Check the battery first, turn on your lights and try to start the car. If the lights dim a lot it's the battery, if they dont it's the starter or a bad conection. Try cleaning the battery terminals and the ground connection to the engine and try to start it again. If that dosent work either the starter or seloniod is bad. I can tell you how to check them but the easy way since you ave to take it out anyway is take it to a auto parts store, most of the chains will check it for free for you.

Good Luck

On the bright side your only looking at about $70.00 to fix it at the most.
