Howdy

Just to make sure, you installed a new starter and the starter will spin but it does not turn the motor over, correct?

If this is the case, check your fly wheel teeth to see if any are missing.
The motor was running great and then it was not. What happened? Was it shut down and then not start or something else. If motor will not crank over there may be some water injected through the exhaust
