Best Answer

the engine might be siezed, put a big wrench on the crankshaft pulley and see if you can turn it starter could be bad (has a dead spot), to check have someone turn the key to start the engine while you tap continuously on the starter with a good size socket wrench, if it turns over by doing this, your starter is going bad and needs to be replaced. If it "clicks" or "clanks" it could be your starter solenoid. That is the unit riding piggy-back on the starter that basically starts your starter.
