If you have the three essentials; fuel, spark and compression- the engine should show at least some sign of life.

Can you tell us some more about what it is or isn't doing?

Moved to proper forum

Thanks Chris! :)

What do you mean by "lost the timing set"?? Did you replace the timing chain and gear set? If so, it should be dot to dot on the sprockets.
