ok so, my car has power when i turn the key, the radio comes on the lights work, but when i go to start the engine nothing happens, no clicking, nothing, but i still have power. i've even tried jumping it, but it didn't do anything. i am able to push start it, since it is a manual, but as soon as i turn the key off i'm stuck in the same situation. even after driving the car for half an hour driving home from work. didn't think to check the alternator when i got home by disconnecting a battery terminal. now the car just sits in the yard not going anywhere.
i've cleaned my grounds and terminals on the battery, still having no effect. so that leaves me to believe my starter has gone bad or my spark plugs? i can't test the alternator unless i can get someone help to push, but i don't think the alternator would cause it not to start.
i don't know how to change the starter or alternator and i've never taken the spark plugs out of the car before.
