It acts like it wants to start. It sounds like it just isn't catching to be able to run.

Hello,

Okay, so I would recommend first ensuring that you have the timing correct. In the diagrams down below I have included the instructions from the vehicle manufacturer on how to set your vehicle's timing chain. Please go through this guide and get back to us with how everything turns out. We can go from there if needed.

Thanks,
Alex
