is it turning over or not? You seem to contradict yourself here.
Turning over = crank shaft is rotating, but due to whatever issues, the combustion process isn't working enough to keep the engine running
Not turning over = starter will not turn the crankshaft, and nothing happens, other than maybe a clicking sound, or possibly the starter bendix spins but nothing else happens.
Trying to start = crank is turning over, and combustion is happening speradically, but not enough to cause it to run. IE, you hear it "catch" now and then, like its about to run.
Its important to discribe exactly what happens when you try to start the car, otherwise we won't be able to help you.
