How old is the battery?

What do you mean all you hear is the starter? Do you mean all you hear is the engine being turned over or do you mean you hear the starter solenoid engage?

Does the car try to turn over or just click? Does it start everytime you jump it? Is it an intermittent problem or is this all the time?

Is the clutch pedal fully engaging?If not it will do as u described..if not u might want to look back into that starter if the battery and alt. are good and it runs fine when jumped.

Could be the solenoid not moving enough juice
but i've never heard of any car doing that when the clutch isn't fully engaged I am new to hondas!!!
