help wont start now
ok just got my car back after 2 months of sitting, i go to start it and at first it sounds like norm, then it clicks a few times so i put a new batt in. it still clicks and then boom its spinning fast as hell like a spark plug aint in. so i guess i dont have any compression now. wtf this is a mazda reman motor with only 30k on it? any tricks to get it started or just to get it to pop over

Calm down kiddo.. You lost compression. Common for motors that sit. There are many ways you can bring the compression back up. I use the MMO method where I grab a vacuum line close to the rotors, and stick it in a cup of MMO, then I crank and let it suck the MMO up, which brings compression up. BUT there are several different ways.
