How did you get a 3.1 with a manual? Did you have a Getrag 282 swapped in or something?
You should check the cables going to your starter, one of them is probably loose, or corroded through perhaps.

I would agree. Check the wire from the battery to the starter solenoid for corrosion. If any of the cables are buulging, you may have corrosion inside the wire insulation. Your only option then is to replace the wire.
