dead battery?

Seriously.

But then again, just check for power to the starter.

Also, there is a kill switch on MTs that need to know that the clutch is engaged. I killed mine once on amotor pull and freaked myself out for aminute. Then I just bypassed it and it started right up.

Did you do any of the wiring stuff yet? You didn't make any mention of that.

Have you read my write up?
