If you just installed a new battery and still no good there are certain fundamentals we check on any dead car. Are the connections and cables ok.? Is the alternator operating ? Is there something drawing power out of the battery when the key is out and doors are locked? And is the new battery any good? All must be checked on a battery installation so when you install a new battery for a customer, it doesn't fail to start again. The starter could also be drawing too much juice. If you have a voltmeter and test light(6-12 volt) let me know and we can go over the specs for your car to see what is happening. The engine itself may be older and hard to turn. I had to put two batteries hooked in parallel just to start an old Ford step van at an airport I was working at to help a company with their ground vehicles. ok The 2carpros site has all the information you need about how it works also and a store with great tools and test equipment. A meter or light is cheap and it will always come in handy.
