ok so i have a 91 240sx, at first all i would have to do is kick the clutch a few times in order for it to start, but one day it wouldnt start at all, when i turn the key there isnt a sound.. ok so i replace the starter, the battery, and the spark plugs.. i try to start it again, and nothing.. the same thing, its as if trying to start it without pushing down the clutch pedal..

so i get down and push the button under the clutch pedal with my finger and it starts right up.. so i think "ok theres the problem"and it started up fine for the rest of the day.

the next day, thinking my car is all fixed i go to start it the same way(with my finger on the button).. only now sometimes when i push the button and turn the key either, nothing happens at all, or it cranks but wont turn over..

my question is.. could the car NOT TURNING OVER,
yet STILL CRANKS have something to do with that button?? or do you think i might be facing yet another problem?? please help!
