The engine does not have hydraulic lifters, I think the cylinders are washed down losing the thin film of oil that helps keep compression. If you have already confirmed that you have spark and fuel, Since the plugs are out, Try spraying a small amount of oil into each of the cylinders. Then with the plugs still removed, crank the eng. for 3 secs. to distribute the oil and clear the cyls. Put the plugs back in, holding the accel. pedal to the floor and crank the engine until it starts. You may need to hook up a jump box to the battery. Let me know if that helps.
