What it takes for a four stroke engine to run is FUEL, FIRE, COMPRESSION, and EXHAUST.
Think in terms of these 4 words and it will all fall into place and the engine will run. If this helps maybe we can help with the system that is failing.
Good luck

thanks paul. I actually had started a different thread, when I first bought the car 1 month ago. I bought it non running... Here is a link.

compression is 145 in all holes, Im getting great spark. the plugs are wet, so its geting fuel. When I first got it running, I drained the oil and put new plugs in. the oil had a alot of fuel in it, so my assumption was that it washed the cylinder.
My thinking is that the cold start injector/valve is leaking, and thus flooding the engine and leaking fuel into the oil.
