who rebuilt your motor? Did you make sure you timed it correctly? are you 100% certain your starter and battery is good? - because your lights dimmed and it almost drained your battery only with three tries.

When installing your timing chain, was the cam keyway and crank keyway at 12 o clock? was the #1 piston on its compression stroke? did you try turning your motor manually a few times before you started it for the first time? did you make sure to line up the oil pump and drive shaft correctly?

Spark? Fuel?

lots of questions homie.

do another basic once over. maybe in the morning and not dead at night where you might miss something though. g'luck
