Anyway these bits land up getting squished onto the valve seats and in effect they prevent a good gas tight seal and you cant generate good enough compression to start the engine it just turns over and over.
You will need to charge up your battery overnight and also get another car to jump start along side and any other jump packs you can lay your hands on as you want to get a good cranking speed
Eventually you will start to get it firing on one cylinder and then it will start up shortly afterwards.
Don't burn out your starter in the process if it wont start after a few minutes then let the starter cool for a half hour before trying again.
