Answer
Dose it have spark to ckeck this pull one of the spark plug wires of a spark plug (one of them) take a screw driver put the wire over the end of the driver and hold the driver a 1/4 of an inch away from the exahust manifold then have some one els turn the motor over you should get a spark if not theres a problem with ignition system (dont get your hand to close to the metal on the screw driver it will shock you if it has spark).
