Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros.com.

This could be the result of many things. Therefore, we need to narrow it down. For an engine to run, it must have compression, fuel, spark, and correct timing. Here is what I need from you: Read through this link and determine what is missing, spark or fuel. If both are present, then there is either a timing issue or low compression.

Let me know what you find and we will focus on that specific component or system.

Take care,
Joe
