check your compresion. it probably overheated.
 
It won't pull fuel or you can't prime it by plugging the exhaust?

Either way I suspect an air leak.
 
al right thanks i'll try those ideas and look for and air leak but were on the truck am i looking for an air leak
 
all right i checked for air leaks and there wasn't any so i replace the gp still does the same thing do you think it could be comprotion:surrender
 
okay now that i know what to try mabye somebody could tell me when your piston and sleeve are bad and need to be replaced?
