Default My car won't start?

Wassup! I bought a new starter for my car, but my car just wont start. The starter works, but the engine just wont rotate. I checked the timing, fuses, and distributor and the all work just fine. Any suggestion? THanks

Double check all of the wires and grounds as well. Be sure battery terminals are on tight and that all your fuses are good. Yea make sure your battery is charged too.

I'd say make sure that you properely tightened the starter down as well and like everybody else....check those grounds!!!

also make sure you double check the fuses both under the dash and in the engine bay--check the easy stuff first---I've learned that the hard way...hope its somethin simple dude--here if ya need anymore help!
