Engine Mechanical problem
1972 Chevy Cheyenne V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

i had the starter tested and its fine and the starter works fine the battery is good when i turn the key it will turn over then stop and let air out and then click; if i turn the engine backwards it will turn over for another 2 seconds or so then do the same thing. i can turn it backwards but it will only turn forward to a certain point or something because when i get it to turn over then it stops it wont turn at all the way it should to start but it turns the otherway just fine then if i turn it back again it will turn over for another few seconds and give out air and stop. whats wrong with it? what can i do to fix whatever is wrong with it.
