Need a lil help

Hey guys,
I haven't posted here in quite a while but I was hoping I could get a lil help.This morning I went outside to start my car and it wouldn't turn over.It keeps clicking really loudly but won't start.Checked the battery and it works fine.Please help.Thanks.

The clicking is the starter. When you say the battery works, wht the light come on or what? The battery might have enough charge to light the lights but not kick the starter. I would charge the battery, or get it jumped be careful, very careful, and see what happens.

Re: Need a lil help

i would try that first before i start swapping parts. Or if you have an Autozone or one of the chain stores handy pull the starter and have it tested, usually free. Just my 2 pennies

Like he said, I would also check for a loose connection at the Battery or the starter... Also, didn't you do a v6/v8 swap ? maybe the cable going to the starter has been damaged somehow.
