We'll need a little more detail than that. What year is it? Turbo? Have you compression tested it yet? Have you checked the spark and spark plugs?

its not a turbo and i have check the spark plugs... i ust dont know how to get it to run. i havent compression tested it.

if you disconnect the spark plugs, crank the engine or turn the engine by hand, and if you hear 3 "whooshes" you have some kind of compression
make sure you cut off the fuel first (i guess the fuse will work ok)

its the ghetto compression test
