Starter/alternator should be the first place to check. How's the battery? Any corrosion around the cables? Loose cables?

yes their all fine i checked for all sources related to electricity , this weekend im going to perform a compression test to check if any pistons are broken , rings or bent rods thats my theory for now untill i try it , i was talking to one of my budies and talk me bent rods usualy tend make the engine strugle to crank hopefully thats not the problem :ohno: but at the same time good for a rebuild
