Technically cranking good and turning over are the same thing. I assume you mean cranks good but doesn't run. Two common causes: 1) Fuel: not getting any. Tank empty, fuel pump dead, pressure regulator bad, fuel line blockage 2) Ignition: none. Bad ignition module or other ignition component. Less common cause: 1) Timing: timing belt/chain issue. If the timing belt or chain breaks or hops a notch then you may find you have both fuel and ignition but with the timing wrong it can't fire when its not getting ignition at the proper (compression) time.

After changing the basic things your car still has problems starting hot or cold cranks but no turn over sometimes cranks really fast?
Timing belt?? If there is a section of the timing belt with no teeth on it, it might be turning till it get to that point, slipping causing it to turn over fast, grabbing enough to turn over normal, but would not be able to start because it is now out of time.

Well it could be many problems.Does the engine crank, but not turn over?If the engine does not crank at all, or cranks slowly, it could be a problem with your battery. Check the battery terminals and wires.If it does not crank, and you believe your battery is ok, check your fuses.If the engine cranks, but won't turn over, it could possibly be your spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor or fuel pump. The best thing to do is to get someone with moderate vehicle knowledge to do some basic diagnostics.
