Check starter relay. When it doesn't turn, have a helper turn the key to the start position while you check for power to the smaller wire on the starter. If you get power, the starter has a dead spot. It could check good one time and bad the next.

Still having problems with the 1995 Diamante when we go to start it makes clicking sound and engine is not getting fire. Put new coil that didnt help. Do you think it could be the computer? Tried relays and many others. The car would take longer and longer to start then after 4 months nothing but the clicking and will not turn over no juice to engine cab has full juice just no fire any ideas. Thank you
