Default Car is cranking, but won't turn over.

Well, the battery has juice, its cranking but it doesnt want to turn over.
It started when i was doing a compression test a few days ago, could the plugs have gone back possibly grounding on something? I would assume its something electrical such as plugs or dizzy.

How do i check what it is?

you probably fried the coil, did you unhook the dizzy when doing the comp test?

no i didnt unhook it, but im going turbo as soon as i figure out what this was, the reason i did it in the first place was to check the rings, i had to replace them and i threw it all back together.
how would i check to see if the coil is fried? if thsi helps at all it was going fine and when i did the comp. test it would crank and everything then i tried to start it afterwards and it wouldnt turn over, but everything else would go.

replace it. i did the same thing once, but i just changed the whole dizzy because i had one. i think it was the coil, but i don't know for sure, it's just my guess.
