I have a S-10 with 151550 miles. Lately when I push the clutch in to start the engine it will try to start then nothing. Every turn of the key brings a clicking sound.

When you say, "it will try to start, then nothing", do you mean that the engine cranks over and will not fire or do you mean it just clicks?

If it is just clicking, you need to test your battery, alternator and starter. If all components are good then I would suspect a faulty ignition switch.

Post your results of the tests and I will follow up.
