Default Engine Wont Turn Over

Hello to everyone from the new guy!

Just replaced my starter thinking that was the issue. New starter is working strong even bringing the RPM's up to about 300-400 but the engine itself wont turn over or run. I'm stumped and any help would be awesome.

Thanks,
scoot

When was the last time you replaced the timing belt? Remove the distributor cap and turn the engine over, if the rotor turns your TB may be ok as long as it did not just skip a tooth or two. If TB ok then check for spark by removing the plug wires and grounding one plug on the engine (with plug wire attached of course), look for a bright blue spark, anything less and it may be the coil.
