you MUST have compression to get it to run. you need air, fuel, compression, and spark to make a motor run. without those 4 things - it won't run.

rebuilds are on the higher end of the spectrum as far as amount of mechanical ability needed and are VERY expensive.


you're better off buying a used motor off of ebay and swaping it.
