Car is 12 years old, average mileage for that is well over 100K, so expect compression somewhere between 150-200 psi. Important that readings are still close together for balance, but you have some leeway there: Most manufacturers say lowest compression should be within 80 % of highest reading. Any cylinder with low compression (below 140 or 150) should have a leak-down test to pinpoint where compression is lost.

Y is it that my 2001 Chevy S10 won't Crank unless I pour gas into the throttle body?

Fuel pump is stuck/fuel filteer or fuel pipe clogged. Try blowing pipings to tank with compressed air from an hand/foot air pump (not from compressed air bottle).

I have a 2001 Chevy Malibu that over heated. Just got done replacing head gaskets and intake manifold gaskets still no start. I heard water flowing out of my exhaust! I have no idea why..

there could be coolant left in the exhaust. check spark and fuel. if you have spark and fuel, check compression. if you have spark, fuel and compression, it should start

AC won't turn on 2001 Chevy suburban

Most likely the system has pressure in it discharged
If the cluch spins the compresser will not work with out enough pressure to make the low pressure valve open .The compressers them selves are pressed together and then to leak .Look for green dye around the middle of the compresser.

I have a 2001 Chevy Impala 3.4 liter I am getting feel and I am getting spark when I turn the vehicle over it backfires and will not start what could cause this

As unlikely as this may be, it may have jumped time. The engine has a timing chain, not a belt....but they can still fail (normally the chain tensioner). A compression check will tell the tale. If there is are multiple cylinders that have low compression, I would suspect the timing chain/tensioner. The backfiring along with the no-start is what makes this suspicious.

My chevy s10 2001 turns over but does not start its not getting gas to injectors

Well you need fuel to the injectors, a spark, compression, air and a signal to the injectors to fire for the engine to start.
So if you've got fuel, make sure you have spark to the plugs, the air filter is not clogged, compression is above 120, and the crank and cam positions sensors are good.
