Take out the top two plugs, pull the EGI fuse, crank the engine over a bit, add a couple of teaspoons of "miracle mystery oil" to each rotor and then try to start it.

It works best to have a fully charged battery also having another running vehicle to jump to.

take that egi fuse out, crank it for literally 20 seconds, then put the fuse back in and try again
