Wont start?

Wont start?
I turn the key but nothing , battery is fully charged and good connections .
So i turn the key to run and then move the gear selector through all the gears and then put back in park , i then try to start it again and hear a big clunk sound , try to start it a second time and it started right up .
Now it wont start at all .

Re: Wont start?
could be a loose ground or wire on starter or may just need a new starter can you turn it over with a scocket or by hand?

I'm thinking the clunk came from the starter /flywheel ,,, i think it may be my starter thats the problem , it started doing some more things like working sometimes and then if i tap my starter with the key/ignition i get it to engage then i start it , i was confused at first because my starter just was'nt doing much at all.

Re: Wont start?
Here is something to check... the relay behind the drivers kick panel, should be there for both AT and MT. Take the cover off it and when you try to start it be sure that the relay is closing every time you turn the key. If not, then check the VATS, gear select plug for the AT and the clutch switch for the MT. If it does, then it is possible that it is the starter.
