I replaced the starter, battery, made sure connections from the battery to the starter are fine and in place. Tried to start the car and it wouldnt crank the guages wouldnt even move, the only way it starts it with a jump and even then its hessitant at first but then starts. PLZ any info is helpful thanks

If all the cable connections are clean and tight, it may be the cables themselves. Many of the positive cables are aluminum and tend to corrode internally under the sheathing. Fwiw, the positive cable connects to the outboard lug on the back of the starter, the negative cable connects to the strut tower, then carries on to the bolt that goes through the starter and the rear iron of the engine.
