Default need some help quick please

i got a 95 gst, the past three days it has been hard to start, i got a new battery yesterday and i put it in today, i went to crank it and it was still hard to crank, i cranked it three times and after that i wont start ne more.
i dont think its the alternator because after it did start the car ran fine.
also now that it wont start when i turn the key the tach shoots up to 3400 rpm and the cel comes on i appreciate your help

also im new to mitsu cars and this might sound stupid but where is the starter located
and how much $

I'd try and get the car scanned if possible. Might help lead you in the right direction to the problem.

I was told that hard starting issues, could be due to a bad coolant temp sensor. Not sure if they is true, or not. The fact that your car is jumping up to the 3,000 rpm range while cranking, doesn't seem normal though. Could possibly be fuel related I suppose, or maybe the ECU sustained damage...
