If it won't crank
1) battery
2) starter
3) fuses
If it cranks but doesn't run
1) spark
2) fuel
3) compression test
Your post is very general. You might want to let us know symptoms and history

Try to turn the motor over by wrenching the eccentric shaft bolt. See if you can get it to turn by hand.

You do a compression test? if low compression you can try adding oil in the housings to boost compression to see if it starts.

So the motor won't crank over at all with ignition? Or is it turning over but won't run?
