Well I got some new tires put on the other day and right after that my car decided not to start, so after a few minutes of trying it just starts out of the blue. A while later it does this again but I get it started again. Only randomly starts out of the blue now. Also, while im driving if I hit a bump or my car jolts for any reason my lights get brighter my check engine light ( its always on) and my cluster all get brighter and my temp. gauge also fluctuates. After finally gettin the car home, yet again, my car wont start I mean nothing , no clicking...... nothing. If I turn my key into the position of "on" with the clutch in theres nothing, but if I pump the clutch my speedo just goes crazy. Any help will be much appreciated. Possibly the switch that tells the computer that clutch is engaged? I have no idea at this point

something is loose, pumping the clutch could be affecting the main ground of the car, if your voltages are jumping from bumps on the road, something is loose, check main battery cables, then follow back to solenoid and starter. stuff like that, GL

That right there sounds like a grounding problem. check your computer grounds and maind grounding points.

definately a grounding issue! check the one on the transmission
the one on the radiator support to the motor on the drivers side and the one at the rear of the motor bolted to the thermstat housing
