I think unless the plug electrodes are bent then may be looking at compression issues if it isn't starting now. Unless the crank sensor is wet which I doubt.

IIITTTTTTT LLLLIIIIIIVVVVVVVEEEEEEESSSSSS!!!!!

Muahahahaahhaha!

Put a new Bosch S5 onto it took a bit of cranking and initially it didn't fire on all cylinders but it sounds like it's running sweet now.

Gonna take it for a spin to see if it pulls alright.

The inside stinks though and it definitely gonna have to be stripped :/


I'm so happy!
