ok soo...i was putting in my new sound system on my car. The car had a bad ground terminal and when i tried to start it, a big spark came from the battery. After that, the car would not start. The engine sounds like its going to start but it wont. I checked the fuses and changed the terminal but it still wont start. CAN ANYONE HELP ME OUT??!!

yea it cranks...i checked the spark plugs and they were not making any spark...so i changed them then changed the ignition coils but still the same problem..then i changed the ECU...i cheked the starter and it was good...the only things left that could be the problem are the distributor and the timing belt..
