Well ive been havin a problem with the car when i push in the clutch it would start up 80% of the time then once in a while i push in the clutch and it would just click and id have to let off the clutch and push it down a lil harder and it would start. Now it did it and now i have no power at all. Thought it might be the clutch switch so i cut the harness and twisted the wires together and still nothing. No headlights or any power at all. Battery read 12.8 volts and terminals are nice and secure and clean. I did notice the ground post was a little hot at one point.
So pretty much the car is not seeing any power even though the battery is fine and has plenty of juice.

Sounds like a bad starter to me. Either that or the alternator is busted and you're not getting a good charge on the battery. Could be loose terminals. I've had it happen before. REplace them and you should be fine bro.

battery shows 12.8 volts, started right up to go to work and now went to leave and has no power. If it was a bad Alternator or starter i would atleast have headlights or somthing with a 12.8 voltage showing

Check the terminal connections man. I had a problem with mine and it would leave me stranded, I'd jump the car and it'd be fine. i replaced the connectors for the terminals and I haven't had that issue since.

Do you have any power at all or no power anywhere? If no power anywhere but your battery's reading good then i would check you main ground and make sure that something didn't happen to it. Saw that on a car recently were the actual ground cable went bad. If not that then I'd see about getting your alternator tested. That happened to me recently was driving down the road and my alternator went bad I still had power to my radio and such but my car wouldn't start replaced the alternator gave it a push start and was good to go.

Check all your grounds. Also check out the main fusible link coming off of the posi battery terminal. Also, go through all fuses in and outside of the car.
