Might want to check the Neutral Safety Swith or Clutch switch depending on what you have. A soleniod will usually click and give you a track record that its going bad.

well i dont think i my car has the clutch safety switch......since i have had it i have been able to start it without pushing in the clutch...........actually now that i think of it i was lookin around down there once and there was a plug with two wires goin to it with a U shaped piece of metal that just went from on part of the plug to the other..... do you think that could be a way that someone would have fixed it to not have a clutch switch because i pulled it out and the car would start so i stuck it back in.....this was a while ago when i did that.... i didnt even think to check to see if that thing had come out.....i cant check right now because i was home for the weekend when it quit so i drove my moms car back to college and i wont be home again till next weekend....
