Super easy to replace actually...prolly just your intake and a couple other hoses and you will be all set, just 2 or 3 screws i dont remember exactly but it is not hard at all.

it happened to me. Check the little wire that connects to the Starter. The starter recieves 2 cables, the 12 V power straight from the battery, and the signal cable, which is a lot smaller, with a female tip at the end. Sometimes it wiggles loose. Push it back in, turn ur car on, come back here on H-T, and tell us it worked 
Good luck!
Good luck!

I had the same problems, changed out my starter and everything. The ground that runs from the battery to the engine bay was near rotted off. It looked OK at a glance. I went to the local junkyard and snagged one, problem solved.
