Ok well i pulled my motor to do some work got it back in all wired up and fludied up and ready to go. Well i get in turn the key the started makes the clicking sound but dosn't crank or turn over.

Thought it was my battery so i left it on a 75 amp kick start for like 15 mins usaly that brings dead batterys back real fast. Well it reached full charge in like a minute. so i took it to autozone the battery is fine. I can't figure out what the problem is all the wires are hooked up i even messed with the started power cable a few times and nothing.

whhen something like this happens I look for 3 things. spark, compression, fuel.

do you get any power from your battery at all? lights, radio? if your battery is fine and your not getting power then check your fuses, cables etc.

go through your systems and see what isnt working.

the click sound? come on, its the fact that your battery termials could have corrosion, or a connection is not good between the battery and the termials (as a result of not tightening or corrision etc). Also check your grounds, if the engine is not grounded properly, the power might now have good (current? flow?) Basicaly, its like not having ground at all. Same as having the negative terminal "half on"

make sure you wired/installed the starter up properly. i bet thats what it is...if it was a comp,spark of fuel prob it would atleast crank...witch it isnt...so therefor it only leaves a few thing....check the starter.
