i'm having the same problem terminals are clean,battery is fully charged, ive even tried running a jumper from the battery to the starter also.
still only get a clicking from the starter and the passenger side fuse box under the hood.

I seem to have the same problem with my 94 cutlass as well. And recently I changed the battery and new positive and negative wires. It seems that where the positive cable from the battery connects is a fuse box on the driver side of the engine compartment. Like for jump starts. Well when I'am getting the clicking noise, I pop the hood, get out and wiggle the wire where it connects to that fuse box and it will start right up after that every time.

My question is that, now I am having transmission issues. All the gears are still there. But when I proceed from a dead stop the car wants to shift before nessecary and by the time I'm goin about 30mph the car is already in over drive and does not wanna come down through the gears. If I come to a complete stop, then the car will start back at first like normal. And if I manually move the gear select from first up through the gears almost like a "autostick" then the car drives just fine. If i bring the gear shift down, like from 3rd to 2nd, then the car shifts very violently, so I'm not driving the car and all the shops I call want a large fee to diagnose the prob. Any thoughts??
