NO. It should start at about 150 LBS. PER cylinder. And you can't have anymore then a 15 Lb. difference in any cylinder, are the engine will idle rough.
With a key, by turning on ignition
If white smoke is coming out of the exhaust when the engine is warmed up , it sounds like engine coolant is getting into an engine cylinder
A spark plug is used to ignite the fuel/air mixture inside the cylinder of an internal combustion engine. If the spark plug isn't working, the cylinder won't fire. In a multi-cylinder engine, this will result in rough running and loss of power. In a small, single cylinder engine, this will result in the inability to start the engine.
Mostly Number 1 cylinder is the frontmost cylinder. Some older cars ( Alfa's are one ) the number one cylinder is the back cylinder
With a compression gauge! Take spark plug out of cylinder 1, insert gauge into the hole start the engine take note of compression on the dial Engine off Insert the spark plug Do the same for all the other cylinder.
This is probably due to the fact that you are out of gasoline, cars can't start without it. :(
No. It either worked to start or it didn't.
At cylinder 1, should be labeled on distributor cap.
as long as the belt is on right it will work, start it
blown piston rings or valves in the cylinder head not seating properly
Could be may things, excessive cylinder wall clearance(worn engine), I would start with a tune-up.
