worse...might be the timing chain jumped a tooth~ take the timing cover off and inspect the timing marks...or- ...a compression test on each cylinder~
Is I turning over but not starting or not turning over at all?

Like when i turn the key over it sounds like it wants to crank but wont turn over
a friend of mine said it could b the time chain but he has to hear he way it sounds to b sure
If turning over slow or not at all could be loose or dirty battery cables, low battery, starter going bad or loose or dirty frame and motor negative battery connections
Well i tried to jump it off and checked all thecales to the battery andeverything is all good..everything is connected righti think we were working on the pastfew days and still nothing
