No its not the starter....Its an ignition/electrical issue. The starter works properly.

If I understand you what you are saying is that when you try to start the 
engine the starter spins but the engine will not turn over.
 
If this is your problem then you need the check the starter. Either 
replace the starter drive inside the starter or replace the starter as an 
assembly.
 
Hope this helps.

Ok here is the latest problem. First let me say that i have 
  replaced the distributor cap, rotor, wires, plugs, ignition module, ignition 
  switch, and coil, all twice. The issue is that when I drive the car, as long 
  as the car is hot, it starts up just fine. However, when I allow the car to 
  sit and cool off for several hours or overnight, the car spins but will not 
  crank. After trying to crank it a few times, if i let it sit for another 
  several hours, it will fire right up. Then it cranks fine for a few days then 
  it starts all over again. I don't know what else to replace. I was just told 
  yesterday that it may be the "pick-up coil" in the actual distributor. Driving 
  me crazy. Any thoughts?
