Update: I've found a very helpful video on YouTube about diagnosing the no start and whittling down the possible causes. I've eliminated the clutch safety switch (bypassed it with a jumper wire) and tried the jumping the starter relay through pins 87 and 30. Now the car will crank no problem while the pins are jumped. I tested the relay but connecting the battery to it with some lead wires and I heard a click, but subsequent testing with a volt meter showed no continuity. So I have ordered a new starter relay and that should hopefully be my problem. But the question remains, why won't it run? I did see my gas was pretty much on empty. So I will add some more gas in the tank. Hopefully with this, the car will start. Will update as I find things out. Ideas and feedback greatly appreciated.
