I am unsure what my car issue is, I filled the coolant, added new oil, brake fluid, and have plenty of fuel, and my battery was replaced less than 2 months ago. My car will sound as though It wants to, but will no9t turn over and ignite, I am at a loss as to what to try next? HELP

Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine -have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs, coil's resistances, distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it
