Car wont start

[??supra]

ok so heres the deal a couple nights ago i was driving home and i parked my car outside my house an went inside for a few hours and then when i went to start my car NOTHING. now prior to this when i would push the clutch in it wouldnt allow the car to turn over so much, i would have to push harder on it to start up. anyone have any idea whats goin on? could it be the starter? thanks ahead of time

anything like this:
delayed cranking

Maybe you had a leak and there isnt any clutch fluid. Or maybe your battery just doesnt have enough juice. You could always manually test the starter if you need to. Make sure you test all your grounds because that could also be the problem.

try this test:

Make sure your battery is OK - with engine off, turn your headlights, fan, rear de-mist etc. all on and check the voltage - should be at least 11V. If it's less than 9 or so you may not have enough power to turn the engine over.

is it cranking over, i mine did the same thing, so i changed the coil pack. and voila she runs again. BTW my coilpack was the orginal

no there is no sounds of it cranking or even attempting to turn over. the elctricity works fine. just when i turn the key nothing

does the starter relay click when you try to start it?

if you turn the key and NOTHING happens, since you said you had to push harder and harder on the clutch, try checking the clutch starter switch. http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/library/TSRM/cl/CL_04.html

ok i was reading through it just a quick ques. where is the clutch start switch located. they dont give a detailed description on where it is

it's in the middle picture right behind the clutch pedal
if you get under and look you'll see it no problem

Does all your electronics stay on when you turn the key to start it, or does it all shut off? That happened to me and just happened to be a connection on my battery terminal wasnt tight enough and i tightened it and everything was good again.
