Turning over but won’t start
1972 cutlass 350 4 barrel carb, it was running fine I went to get gas filled up then it would spin over but wouldn’t start I replaced the plugs distributor cap and rotor button if ignition coil. When I try to turn it over it is a slight grinding sound, not sure we’re to go from here

When you attempt to start the vehicle, does the starter engage and continuously turn the engine over but the engine will not start? IOW, the starter is in fact turning over the engine but it won't start. Or, does the starter spin but the starter does not engage the engine and the engine does not turn over?

Got gas and good spark it should start unless timing is off or fuel is bad. Im gonna agree with others about timing. Maybe loosen distributor and mark where it is then turn either direction and see if it pops or something? If so then maybe focus on a timing issue?
