Ok is this a failure to crank??
Sometimes the engine just does not turn over (crank) Turn to start it does nothing!!
Neutral safety safety or clutch safety switch depending what you have in the open position
Turns real slow ?? battery terminals, battery cables or ground connections
Just because the battery is charged it still needs to get the voltage where it needs to go
How many miles Starter contacts ??
It cranks just fine will not start ??
Figure out one part of the problem at a time.
I hope you have a Meter your going to need it

The C.O.R. would not cause those symptoms you described. In fact that the C.O.R. did not fix it is proof.
"No start" is a vague phrase.
You need to tell us whether the issue is "No Crank" (Starter did not turn), Or No Combustion ( No VROOM).
"Nothing", "no noise", "no lights" are indication of power issue. Are you absolutely sure that your electrical connections have secure and have shiny, bare metal contacting shiny bare metal?
How about your battery? You mentioned it's from 2008.
Quick check without taking it to the shop/store:
Everything off:
Probe battery POST for voltage. What do you get?
Probe battery TERMINAL for voltage. What do you get?
Yes, Need the two separate test points above. They can tell us something.
Turn headlights on, High Beams much better:
Probe battery POST for voltage. What do you get?
Probe battery TERMINAL for voltage. What do you get?

Thanks Rad, I agree with you on the clean connects, I will check all my fuses/relays, I suppose go down the line with all the ignition and ground contacts.

Just for an update, the last time my 91 acted up( starting problems) I cleaned up the battery connects and haven't had a problem since(thanks Rad), they were not to bad, run with it.
