no it wasnt running because the guy that sold it to me said it just needed a timing belt. my friend the one working on it ans at this point i dont know if its him and his lack of knowledge of cars or if its just the car. let me ask him about the spark plugs.

Have a compression test done. Ensure the timing belt had been installed correctly.

It can be done as the compression test requires the sparkplugs to bnbe removed and you have even replaced the timing belt s checking the timing belt installation should be easier than that.

Does your mechanic have the timing marks references and is he sure of the job? It could be a fault with the timing belt installation and if the original belt was not broken, it could have been timed out of specs and if your mechanic follow the same references, it is not going to work.
