1988 foxbody no start
 
I recently bought a 88 5.0 this car runs like a top when I brought it home put in in the garage to clean it up but on some new wheels and rims,so I go to start it to take it out of the garage and there is nothing when I turn the key,it has a new battery I bought a new solinodput it on still nothing and so figured must be the starter so on a new one went still the same,if I bump start it she fires right up.Anybody have any ideas

Neutral Safety switch or clutch interlock or bad ignition switch OR your getting no power being fed to the ignition switch.

Do yourself a favour and save some $$ rather than shotgunning parts on it get a 12v test light ( I've seen them at the dollar store!) and see if your getting power at the solenoid when you are cranking and work back towards the ignition switch.

clutch interlock, probably out of adjustment...Doug
