That's what the failed starter on my Accord was like, sluggish starts and then that annoying click with nothing.

Nothing to do with fuel pump; engine isn't even turning over.

I still think there's got to be something wrong with the battery.

Im thinking battery cables or starter.

If that's a new/charged battery and your terminals are good, that seems like a starter problem.

Could be the starter. Smack it with a hammer.

That trick is usually for when the starter solenoid is stuck. His is working...

Looks like you have to remove the intake manifold to reach your starter. That sucks.

Yeah. I watched a video and decided I better take it in.

Take a hammer to the starter, seriously, if it starts that is the issue.
