Default GSR wont start after gassing up! HELP!

I need help! My 95 GSR will not start. It gets power, but doesn't even try to turn over. Here
s what i tried

- removed and replaced gas cap
- cleaned battery terminals and connections
- tried to jump start
- reset computer
- checked fuses
- I replaced the dizzy not too long ago
- bypassed the ignition switch to start manually

i thought it could be the ignition switch because when i switch it to on, everything turns on as it should.. when i go to start it, nothing happens.. everything stays on and it doesnt even try to start???

does anyone have any ideas? I can hear the fuel pump when i turn the ignition on... i can also hear the clicks so i dont think its the relay..could it be the starter? where its at right now i cant really push start it

any help is greatly appreciated!

also, before i stopped for gas, i was low on gas and the light was on.. in case that helps.

Take the starter to autozone and have them check it for free.

i know you've already ordered it but most jdm importers will sell working used ones for $50. a lower mile oem unit is vastly superior to the reman garbage you find on ebay

Found the problem!!

my car wouldn't start.. i checked all the usual stuff... battery, terminals, ecu, dizzy, fuel pump.. spark test, ignition, main realy, etc.. my car would start if it was push started..so, i thought it was my starter.. i ordered a new starter and haven't gotten around to installing it yet, when i saw another post on here about the CIS (clutch Interlock Switch)... i knew about the button on the break pedal for the tail lights, but not for the clutch.. so, i gave it a shot.. took a while to find it.... i reached under, pushed the button and my car started right up!!!

Anyone wanna buy a starter??. brand new never used!!

Thanks for your help everyone!!
