Alright guys,
Sorry for the new thread but I tried searching and I couldn't yield any results. I changed the RMS and Oil pan gasket yesterday (what a PITA) but I didn't try to start it being I wanted to let the RTV set fully. I just power washed it so I could make sure there was no leaks. I go to start it and I only get one "click" or "thump" when I turn the key.
I cleaned the battery connections and whacked the starter but it's still a no go. Is this a water in a place where water shouldn't be situation? I did my best not to get the distributor but there are those group of wires towards the firewall that got wet.
I'll update my profile(if that's possible) after this post. I gotta get this beat up and going for work tomorrow morning.
Edit: Couldn't find Jeep information.
Edit 2: Got it figured out. It ended up being the starter after all. The plastic cap that holds the studs on the solenoid was moving out towards the front of the Jeep which wasn't allowing the starter to do its job.
