1976 S3 Will Not Turn Over?

Hello,
I have had problems starting my landy as I had changed the injectors and it just stopped turning over. I had the battery tested and brought a new one. Still nothing but clicking so replaced the starter but same thing. I had a jump start and that got it going. I put the battery on charge and same again, just not turning over? It is very frustrating. Electrics are not something I understand well.

Starter solenoid might be worth a look.

And no need to type in huge print. We can hear you!

Place a jump lead between the battery negative and the exhaust manifold, if it turns over that points to the earth connection either on the battery to chassis or chassis to engine, quite common on older vehicles, the lead can look perfect but be corroded internally.
Do you know how to test the starter off the car? As this can prove its the vehicle wiring or as mentioned the solenoid, this can also be by passed if you know how
