Intake mani gaskets changed now my SC won't start.
 
I know this seems random, well it is. While my SC was down after I had to change out my ignition switch and ignition cylinder. I decided to go ahead and to some other need maint. on the car. Cleaned up somethings and decided to change the intake mani gaskets as I was able to pull piece of one out by hand one day.

Now mind you before this my car would crank no matter what well now I have the issue where when I put the key in to start it. Everything comes on like normal it has a brand new battery. But, when I turn the key to start the car I get one click then nothing. The nights dim like the car is trying to start but I get nothing after that. I've had a problem with the ground on the battery on my car before so I'll have to try moving it again. It's not a repeated "clicking" just one.

You can hear the fuel pump working but just nothing afterward. I checked all my fuses and wiring so I have no clue what it is if someone can help me with this that would be great. Since my Tundra went into the shop today and I have nothing else to drive.

sounds like a ground wire problem. re-check your ground and battery post.

might be the starter solenoid went bad

Yeah that's what I'm guessing which means I have to pull the intake mani back off ugh.

Well correction to what I said earlier about the start had my brother sit in the car to make sure I heard everything correctly. Well when he turned the key I got nothing but fuel pump noise. Well I took a wire to the starter and hit it with power and then you could hear it. It was one "click/clang" so somewhere I'm have the issue with this when I turn the key I'm getting nothing at the starter. No the ignition switch I put into my 95SC came out of a 93LS would that cause me any issue here.
