try pulling out the plug and earth it out to see if it sparks is so, take the covers off and make sure you haven't broken a spring. the next thing is to do a compression and a leak down test.

we found the problem a couple of days ago and it was a broken rocker arm (yellow terras) split in two dont know how it happened and we checked everything else and looks good should be up and running when he gets the new rocker arm in.
