Please... with all due respect, "turn over" is taken by the vast majority of auto people as meaning "rotating". If you want to use the vernacular, you might say your engine "turns over" (because the starter makes the crankshaft turn) but doesn't "catch."

If it doesn't "turn over" then you have a starter or electrical problem.

I don't want to offend, but I see it took a couple of posts just to understand your car's problem from the way you were describing it.

By all means check that blasted blade fuse, and your fuel pump relay. All fuses good?
