      Car won't start

      OK heres the story. The other night i was putting in my new battery and when i connected the battery cables there was a metal on metal contact and it sparked and smoked a little bit i disconnected the battery and fixed that problem and reconnected everything and go to start her up and nothing. No turning over no clicking no nothing. So I'm thinking i shorted out my battery.



      I get my battery tested and its fine. So i talk to one of my buddies and he thinks I may have shorted out the solenoid for the starter. So i change that out and there is still nothing no clicking no nothing. No i go out and get a new starter after i get that tested it was fine but the guy recomended getting a new one cause it was close to dying. Well i put the new starter and and i still got NOTHING.

      I'm all out of ideas, i'm covered in grease and dirt and im actually a little pissed off. So if anyone has any advise on what could be wrong it would be greatly appreciated.
