Default starter problems

maybe someone can help me with this.. my car would not start one day so i replaced my started thinking i needed a new one, bc my battery is fine and i replaced my alternator not too long ago, plus i could push start my car. yet, i have the same problem with the new starter.. could it be possible that the new (used from H motors) starter is bad too, or do have other problems?

Does it turn over at all?

Does it sound like it will turn over if you hold the key in the start position for a few seconds, but the moment you let go it dies?

Does the check engine light come on in the "on" position?

Does the main relay click and do you hear your fuel pump prime up when you turn the key on?

Answer these questions and we may have a solution for you.

ok here it is.. when i turn the key i hear a clicking sound and no it doesnt really seem like is would turn over if i held the key on. i replaced the main relay not too long ago and i hear the fuel pump turn on. I just dont get it it ran just fine before.. and the engine will run if push started..
