1. Dont go to that shop anymore.
2. Engine needs gas, spark on time plus air & healthy cranking

To narrow problem sources:
- does it crank?
- When problem is acute, disconnect one coilpack, insert spare plug,
ground it on engine and view for spark while smbdy starts.
- Feel fuel hose; if pressure is healthy, its stiff.
- Run self diagnostics, and/or purchase a tester
