Use periods once in a while. Your message was very difficult to read. So if I am reading it right you tried to jump the solenoid and it didn't kick over. At that point it looks to be your starter.

yeah but i also wonder if i used too small of a gauge of wire to jimp it on the other hand i could't test the solinoid cuz of my big hands :( and i want to know how can a starter go bad instalnly cuz before this it started up in a split second without hustation then nothing.

If you have battery voltage at the starter on the positive cable, and you have battery voltage ( or around 12 volts ) at the ignition wire while the key is in the crank position , then you have a bad starter. I would have tapped it with a hammer while someone tried cranking the engine to see if it would start. But it probably needs replaced anyway. As far as getting the starter out , remove the flywheel cover and you should be able to drop the starter. Good luck!

the repair manual says to lift the eng and trannay by unbolting it from the eng mount well i kinda wanted to avoid it i attemped to loosen the srews for the cover well all i was able to do was drag myself all over the floor i guess it takes more then 200 pounds to loosen em cuz it draged me around so after x-mas i'll get my jack stands and borrow a good floor jack and unbolt the ----ing eng. mounts any tips on how to make this a easyer job this is my 1st time tacking this project. and i need to have it running before new years eve since i am going on a 200 mile trip
