I am having some trouble with my 95 gt 5 spd. here's whats going on, maybe someone knows what to do. thanks
ok, the other day i was backing the stang into the garage and it stalled, then it wouldnt start. so i tried turning it over with a wrench and it turned fine, so i pop started it and it runs perfect. so i figured it was the starter so i bench tested it and it was junk so i put a new one in and it is still doing the same thing (i bench tested the new one and it worked fine), i jumped the solenoid and with the key off it turned on the fuel pump and with the key on it did nothing. all the wires are well connected and clean. the ground is clean the battery is fully charged. i cant figure out what it is at all. before this it ran and started fine. has anyone ever run into this or am i missing something?? anything would help, thanks guys.also the old starter had one male spade connector and the new one had a spade and a wire with a butt connector, i figured the extra butt connector was for other models with the same starter, other than that the starters were identicle. the car has a fairly new red top optima battery. I checked all the wires with a test light and everything seems correct. i took the starter out and re-bench tested it and it was fine. the distributer is stock, 58,000 miles. it wont turn over if i turn the key it just clicks. i know the motors not seized. i jumped the clutch pedal switch and still nothing. when i connected the stater to another battery i have it will turn the engine over. but even if i jump the car it wont turn it over. i have no idea what it is. could it be the ignition and how would i test it? thanks guys i appreciate it!!
