At the risk of sounding like I know what I am talking about here...

I asume when you say it won't start that the engine is tunring but not firing ?

what do the plugs look like and are you getting a spark ?... my 2.5 is very fussy about the plugs being gaped correctly. It's possible you might have the wrong plugs...

just a thought
