Hello, my car has been not starting on and off now for over a year, sometimes it goes through spells of not starting and i have to push start it evertyime, (i resort to parking it on hills and such) Then sometime it start like a champ everytime.

I finally am getting sick of the uncertainty and stuff, so id like to get it fixed.

When it doesnt start all i hear is a click. Sometimes if i get it rolling then ease out the clutch and turn the key, the starter will kick in and start the car.

What about the Clutch Pedal Position Sensor? How do i bypass it and where is it at?

sounds like a connection problem to me...
either battery or starter poles.. could also be the cables... a good inspection should show you problem.
Also, have someone else start the car(or try to) with the hood open, look/listen for a pop... it will normally lead you to the problem.
I dont think its a sensor problem.
