I left work and my car started fine then i stopped at my girls job and it happened, when i was leaving my car didnt start, the starter didnt make no noises at all so i pushed the car to start and that way works like a charm. So last night i checked my junk and found 2 more starters so i changed both and nothing no noise at the starter except a click that seems like coming from the fuse box under the hood. I manually pressed the button on the clutch with my hand and still nothing. Please help me out my car is a 95 civic ex with no alarm.

Measure the voltage across the two battery posts and at the large wire attached to the starter.

You are probably not getting enough voltage to the starter. Check source voltage first across the battery. This should be around 12.6 to 12.8 volts. Then check the voltage drop across the positive battery cable to the starter. This will be a lot easier with someone cranking while you test. Voltage drop testing is the most effective. Remember - you must test this while the circuit is operating with the meter tapped in parallel.

Could also just be corrosion on the battery terminals. Check the obvious stuff first.
