-a.- They have a proper compression tester which prints out the pressures on paper slip. They gave it to you. If they didnt, dont expect them to do anythin right. (change shop)

1. Write HERE the pressure values - for each cylinder 1to6.
2. This CANNOT be the reason for not starting. (change shop)
3. Spark. ??? Where do u live as nobody is not able to check for spark?

I can explain the pressure thing and dive into there detailly. But I really cannot see how no startup is connected with this claim. Low pressure is a separate issue, and if power was available before this startup problem, cannot see any connection. Also you dont speak of excess need to add oil (worn engines puff blue smoke), cannot believe you have been in right shop. And if two cylinders are ok, THE ENGINE WILL START loud and clear - may stutter, but starts. Steer clear from thsi shop, they change on some other crap engine, charge, and still you havent got a car which runs...
abc: Any mechanically sound engine starts IF a. gas injection, b. spark, c. air -on time-.
First isssue: GET IT STARTED. Take it to another shop, give them 2 hours to get it running or at least diagnosed, not one minute more. If theyre not capable, again wrong shop... For this reason, check now all your friends for references for local known good service ppl. One indication of a capable service guy is that theyre busy: have to wait...
