1994 Ford Escort, 84,923 miles, 4 cylinder, stick shift. Car had to have a new clutch installed a while back, but after the clutch had been installed it drove well, but stalled a little bit when starting. Now, the radio started acting up, but I had to press the reset button on the inside of the radio, but the car would still start. Then the next day, I went out to start it up and it won't make any noise or turn over. I noticed the sunroof would barely move, it was very weak. We tried to jump it off, but still wouldn't turn over. Radio stopped working. I had an amateur mechanic check it out and he tightened up the battery posts, but still doesn't start. Another amateur said to check all circuit breakers. I need a professionals help!
