What causes a 1993 buick lesabre not to start after replacing the starter?
My suggestion is to make sure that you have a good connection between your starter and your battery. Is the starter even functioning? If not, it is probably a bad starter, a bad battery, a bad fusible link for the starter, a blown fuse, or just a bad connection.

Can a bad regulator-rectifier on a Kohler Courage Sv590 1 drain the battery and 2 keep it from starting once battery is recharged spins but won't crank?
If you have a starter that spins but doesn't engage the engine and a battery that is always dead then I would look closer at the starter then the regulator. The regulator is part of the charging system but if the rectifier is bad then it might be possible for the battery to drain flowing backwards through the charging system but highly unlikely although possible. As for it to stop the starter from engaging the engine, that is not possible.
