I just replaced my starter and my car started for a couple hours then when i tried to start it again it wouldnt start up. I tapped on the starter and it tried to start but didnt. I also broke one of the nuts that is on the valve cover. The nut where the ground wire or w/e is attatched to. I dont know if this affects it. Please help thank you.
Well if your ground isnt hooked up where that nut broke then thats your problem.
Make sure that ground is properly hooked up son!

The valve cover ground is not mandatory...check your main relay. I just ran my car without the vc ground for like three weeks and put it on yesterday...

if the bolt broke off into the thread hole... try usin/purchasin a tap n die kit. mine broke off once in my EK, but the tap n die kit didnt work cuz of the way the bolt broke off so deep. so i had to drill it out with a drill bit almost the size of the bolt but not a lil smaller...then i had to use a heily coil(sp?).
