Car won't start......

My car won't start. I am still getting spark. I am still getting gas. I checked both. Now I am stuck. Any suggestions. I hear a "EEEEEEEEE'' sound when I try to start my car. It rotates but wont turn.

If it just sounds like the starter is just spinning itself without engaging the engine, give it some love with a hammer (not too much love, mind you) and then try it. If it doesn't work then, check/charge your battery and try again.

If it sounds like the engine is spinning but there's no compression, you're probably flooded, and should go through the typical unflooding procedure, which can be found by searching.
