If it only has two cylinders doing any work then it time for an engine overhaul or replacement. He should have done at least compression test first to determine if it was even worth proceeding with anything else.

Can your friend pronounce the word " compression " ? Many curb side mechanics don't have a clue in the world , They do stupid cave man stunts/techniques and have bad advice . Just ask here if you have a problem/question
