Did you remember to hook up the ground wire clip on the starter solenoid?

Our DSM's (Turbo). Don't have (Rotor Cap).

They don't use Distributor, They use Coils.

Check if you have spark, Or check your Cooling Temperature Sensor.

You might disconnect it with out knowing.
If it is disconnect it, It will not Start.

Well, that's if your car was running good before you took out the starter.

If everything is good, then is time to fallow the Link that (fourgsixthree33) post before.
