Default Help please..Another no start

So I just replaced the head gasket on my B18B, all vacuum hoses and sensors are connected. I go to start it and the starter spins but instead of the normal pulsing from the compression strokes it just spins and a steady pace and won't start. Any ideas?

Do a compression check. Sounds like you have some serious leakage. What caused you replace the gasket?

your head is probably warped if you over heated it multiple times. get that and the block leveled out and you should be fine, your compression will be higher though. please take that into account.
