NO start (stumped) 850 1995

"Lawn mower syndrome" --- your brief start didn't let oil pressure to build up and the lifters never got lifted properly.

Make sure you have enough battery power, and crank the sucker for at least 60 seconds. The starter will build oil pressure and your compression will come back and the car will run normally.
