Got a voltmet? See if your’e getting power to the small wire on the starter solenoid When key is in start. If not start backtracking. If you do get power then maybe the solenoid. You can jump it straight to the batt wire on the starter.
I agree, I said tap but some rethreaders are refered to as taps. I should have made that clear. A rethreader is prefered.
Ha, I've done the same thing cutting grooves in bolts. Works in a pinch.
Something I thought was odd. 98 Accord, 5sp. Owners manual say that you can use Honda MTF or 10W30/10W40 but change back to the Honda juice when convenient.
