well if u said u hear a poping noise and it was turning over but not starting u might want to check ur timing. Also u said u put gas in A cyclinder,how? U might want to try some starter fluid and if that works then check ur whole fuel system

Default hey

You take out the spark plug and put a little bit of gas in it, thas how mechanics check to see if there is a fuel problem. What the hell is starter fluid though?

Carb spray/starting fluid u can get it almost anywhere.

We soak the air filter in gas. Works better but I wouldn't do it to a K&N or anything like that.

Pouring gas into each cylinder will flood it pretty easy.

It's just a couple of drops, so where do I put this starter fluid? How much does it go for?

I found somethin weird though, I have a totally smashed tps, and the computer is not picking it up, you guys think that could be why it is not starting? It aint throwing any codes at me now, so it is getting better. Let me know guys

well im not sure if ur tps well stop u from starting cause i disconnectec mine before and started it only thing that happened it was idling at 1500 instead of around 7-800, if u find something else let us know.
Has the motor ever ran before or did u buy it from someone?
Did u check ur timing?
you might want to do a compression test
