Default Not starting>>

Figures, fix one thing, another breaks..

Car will not start (push starts in 2nd though)

I was checking my oil issue tonight ( which is mostly fixed) anyway, I shut the car off and started it a couple times, after driving and stopping, I stopped again and then no start. Not Security light on or flashing while key is in start position and I here the relay under dash click. This happened to me last year in June once, on the Saturday of Bloomington Gold. has been working fine since that day until today.. doing the same thing

here is how the starting circuit is set-up:

After the Clutch pedal I changed it and added a relay.. the relay energizes from the clutch pedal to ground, I then have 12v going to that new relay then to the starter solenoid ( did that in Nov of 2007)

last year in June I made a VATS bypass thinking that was it.

Now when I bought the car in July of 2007 the PO had soaked the motor with water and the starter so it would not start. i am still using that starter. I am thinking I should just buy a new starter but wanted to get other opinions.. everything leads me to the starter but I will check voltage on the relay going to the Starter solenoid to be sure there is 12v.. if there is, then I am guessing a starter is in order

there is a rebuilt on eBay for $75 or new from Partsladi for $175.. I am guessing PL is the better deal
