Won't Turnover
finally got my car back together after replacing the intake manifold, new valve covers, and new water pump. turn the key yesterday afternoon and nothing...just dead air..no sound at all.
double checked the wiring connections from the battery to the starter, ignition coil, etc., everything is exactly back to the way it was b4 i disconnected everything. had a guy friend on my street who is an electrician and he tested the battery (13V) ignition coil was fine (brand new), the battery ground wire was never disconnected from the car and is connected securely to the block.
Anybody have any suggestions.....???

Does everything else work? eg: lights, radio, horn Make sure your ground wire is taken off and all surfaces are sanded to shiny metal. Be careful when tightening the double nuts on the solenoid, use 2 open end wrenches. The threaded stud that the wires connect to have a habit of spinning. Once that happens the solenoid is toast. Sometimes happens when tearing down that leads to hair pulling upon reconnect. Some what like " everything is exactly back to the way it was b4 i disconnected everything."
