after doing some research (and procrastinating) i have figured out that my ignition signal circuit is messed up.
that, however, is something i don't really have much knowledge of. my car wouldnt start on occasion sometimes but i figured it was just a bad starter because eventually it would start after a few tries. But me being the poor kid that i am, i never got around to fixing it. but anyways could someone please explain to me what needs to be done/ checked in detail? -------------------- **If you play My Brute, joing the 6gc.net clan!**

correct. Pull them and take them to like AutoZone or something and have them check continuity. Not all of the terminals will have continuity with each other. They are about 30 bucks each. I know schucks (kragen or checkers depending on location) carries both relays.
Edit... nvm.. you said you have spark Can you hear the fuel pump turn on when you turn the car to the "on" position? You won't hear it from inside the car, but if you are in the engine bay and have someone else turn the car on you should hear it.
