Default HELP!!

ok i am new to this forum but i am hoping i can get some input. first off some background, i just bought an 88 gt it a month ago it ran great for first couple weeks but then after being warmed up it wouldnt start...also was bucking pretty good here and there. mostly when warmed up.so i started off by getting a simple tune up hoping that would fix it, but unfortunately it didnt. now the car wont even turn over. so i was told by a mechanic that it could possibly be the ignition control module so i replaced that today and it still wont start. im stumped, any advice would be much appreciated.
thanks.

You might wanna look in the starter area!
When you turn the key does it click or do nothing?
can you jump it across the solenoid and it spin over?

but in answer to your question yes you can jump across the solenoid and spin it over.
