No, it isn;t turning over yet. Something electrical.

Have you used ether starting fluid.
Works really well if the car has been sitting and I do not believe causes 
any harm at all.

The last time I tried to start it the cranking
slowed gradually until it wouldn't turn over at
all. I assumed the battery went dead and let it
sit for a few months. But now I'm told by NAPA
that that is how a bad starter will also act. I
was told a simple way to troubleshoot it is to
cross a screwdriver in the large and small nuts
on the starter where the positive lead come in.
If it cranks it rules out a bad starter.

I'd like confirmation this is safe and will not harm the electrical system.

Thanks
