I am in a truck and diesel class and im workin on a massy 175 diesel. I have rewired every thing and all it does when you trun the key is click click click. I have put a new starter on it from napa and it ate it up so it was junk? any ideas what could be wrong?

So what exactly have you done. Assuming you have not changed the timing inside the motor can you turn it over by hand?
If not then it is siezed or some other major drama has occurred.
if it is a new starter and definitely OK then the clicking is the solenoid clicking in and not with not enough power to turn the engine over. Check battery cables from the battery to the starter. Check that the negative line is earthed. Follow the power up to the ignition switch and back to the starter. Feel carefully for any hot spots or loose wires. If all else fails wear a pair of glasses, make sure the tractor is in neutral gear and touch a wire from + on the battery to the starter solenoid. I am not an auto electrician however I recently rewired a burnt MF135 and had no problems. I soldered all terminals rather than crimped them which avoid later problems. I use a small piece of heat shrink tube over the terminals to give a professional looking finish.
