Default Starting problems

ok so last night i was getting out of work, i usually remote start so my car can warm up a bit, but it wudent strat with my remote.

so i get to my car and turn the key...and nothing. it wouldent even crank

so i said maybe its my battery...but i just got a new battery 3 weeks ago. i call my mom to get a boost, and while i'm on the phone with her i keep punping the gas (i dunno why) and turning the key and eventually it started.

on my way home i stopped in to get gas and after filling up the car wudent start again, so i did the same thing and eventually it started

now this morning i tried to start my car, can again...nothing.

i decided to leave it for a bit and i just tried it now, i turn the key and i heard a click, and turned the key again and heard a click, and then on the third time it started.

i'm stumped i dont know what it could be, i know its sumthing electrical (duh)

thx in advance guys!

so it doesn't crank at all and clicks instead? If so then it's your starter. It's a cheap fix too.

Brass contacts in the starter. Very easy and cheap to fix. Probably a $3.00 fix, maybe less. Check team-integra.net for write up on how to fix.
