slow4now Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 Do you have the clutch safety switch wired up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jpurdy2003 Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 Your battery might need a charge. How long was it sitting without running? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berto Posted March 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 ok replying for the sake of archives. turned out the starter was bad, Dave(gas grass or ass) helped me out. said that sometimes the testers at the store have only short lengths of wire and also much more amperage to offer than your normal 220k mile corolla so the starter will check ok but it really isn't. got a new starter everything is great new clutch and tranny feel awesome, no more clicking CV joints (new halfshafts), new stater. hopefully its ready for the 70 mile round trip commute to honda for the summer btw big thanks to dave, matt(tinman), clark(dunno his name on here, but he has a purple neon), and doug(doug). for helping me out at various stages w/knowledge and tools. this was my first tranny swap! yay!
