Fc won’t start

Got my car cranking check spark fuel and everything it’s all there. Car just cranks but won’t atwrt. If I disconnect the fuel pump and throw some starting fluid at it, it pops a lot and tries to start but not so much with the fuel. Maybe a couple pops but then that’s it.... and then it floods. Yes it is new gas

Check compression, if that checks out then its super flooded. You'll want to put some oil in the rotor chambers, give it a shot of ether and crank it

Is this a s4 or s5?

It’s an s4. I put some MMO in it when I first got it. I’ll check compression
