86.5 Manual non-turbo will not start!!

Try putting it in neutral and then starting, could be a switch on your transmission. I had a similar problem on my mazda protege.

It's a manual transmission so I've tried that. Even tried putting it in gear to start it.

Do you hear a click? If so, the starter is bad, and needs to be replaced. If not, check the clutch safety switch. There is a switch on the clutch that is supposed to keep the starter from engaging when the clutch is out. You are pressing the clutch in all the way, right?

Could the MAF come loose? This will prevent it from turning over.

It turned out to be a wire that came out of the alarm, so I reconnected it in the morning and it fired up fine. Going to get the schematics for the factory alarm and just bypass it all together
