You'll need to do better than that. Engine model number? Year?

What is the compression psi of all individual cylinders?

With spark plugs removed, does the spark jump a 7/16" gap with a strong blue lightning like flame... a real SNAP!?

When was the last time the engine ran properly?

Have you or someone else been working on it? If so, why? And what was done to it?

Has the engine been sitting for quite a while, and if so, how long?

Go into detail, be specific... don't give replies like "The compression and spark are great" as that means nothing to us.
