Sorry running late. See what's missing spark or fuel, do this remove a spark plug wire insert a screwdriver into the boot and then hold the metal part of the screwdriver 1/2in from a metal part of the block then crank the engine while you watch for spark, check for fuel remove the plastic cap on the fuel rail and depress the schraeder valve and turn the switch on fuel should spray out. When you find out repost. These questions come to my email so i'll watch for you. I hope this helps take care
