when i turn the key to start it, the engine doesnt wanna start like its supposed to. Instead the engine turns and then at one point it will stop and struggle to turn over and does the same thing over and over.

Check for starter draw being excessive, battery condition, cables and grounds, does it ever actually start, has it run, very short on info here.
