740 no start 700 1986

All that fuel may have washed the oil from piston rings and cylinder walls.

Result = no compression. Pull all plugs and let it "breathe" for an hour or so.

Then put a small spoonful of oil into each cylinder and turn over by wrench on crank pulley bolt to spread the oil around.

Good luck getting that rubber boot back on.

Make sure CSValve isn't leaking under pressure, and disconnect wires temporarily to help stop flooding.

CIS = Constant Injection System (K-Jet) in some books.
