My wife drove the car to the house and said it was running fine. A couple of days later, she said it wouldn't start. I checked the firing and it is firing. I sprayed starting fluid in the breather and it still didn't try to start. Could it have jumped time?

Very well could have. Does it seem to crank over really fast? Thats usually a tell tale it jumped time. You can check the compression, that will tell you right away. Feedback and votes are greatly appreciated.
