When you tried to start it, did it fire at all? These engines will run with the IP timing way off but maybe not 24 degrees off?

Not so, a good buddy of mine had a 240D that had been off something like 16 degrees for years. I was hard starting and we did everything we could think of and finely checked the timing, DOH, it was a tooth off. Other than hard starting it ran great. Having the timing right on is a good thing, tho
