Default HELP!! Integra won't start after clutch install?!!

Ok
my bro's friend intalled my new Exedy clutch this weekend and for some reason it does not start until after about 3 to 5 turns on the ignition....All I hear is a click when I try to turn the key on the ignition...What could be the problem?

Double check all of your starter connections...

When you turn the key and you only hear a single click then that indicates the starter is going out. I had the same symptoms and I replaced my starter and it fixed the problem.

Okay I've checked a couple connections but no results...It's still doing the same thing...It would still start...Sometimes it starts on first try, sometimes it takes a couple tries...Any other suggestions?

Usually, it is loose connections, weak battery, or bad starter. Check in that order. Make sure the negative battery connection to the tranny bracket is tight, as well as the starter connections. My guess would be weak battery since it sat for awhile probably.

well, it sat for about 3 days...Wouldn't the car crank if it was a weak battery? My guess is a bad connection...I guess I will be checking more connections...
