[QUOTE="werstlna, post: 6934680, member: 8220"] Hi all, I'm trying to figure out why my '92 5.0 won't start after I just put in new plug wires. I should've started the car first before installing wires to make sure it would run b/c I haven't run it in 10 days. I could re-install all the old wires but I double checked all connections so I don't think new wires would cause this problem. I did a thorough Simple Green and light garden hose cleaning of the engine bay 10 days ago, but I was able to start and drive the car after that so I don't think anything shorted out from water. I had a box fan blowing on the engine bay overnight after cleaning it to make sure everything dried out quickly. Anyway, I put a charger on the battery today and it read full. When I turn the key I can hear a single click coming from the driver side of the engine bay. I'm assuming this means enough juice is getting to the starter, because it's not a continuous clicking like when you have a low battery. Does this mean the starter is shot or what should I do? Thanks. [/QUOTE]
