If it only has two cylinders doing any work then it time for an engine overhaul or replacement. He should have done at least compression test first to determine if it was even worth proceeding with anything else.

I'm guessing the car's got about two-hundred-thousand miles on it. When running properly, it's worth about a set of new tires. Push it to a junk yard and you'll probably get about $300 for it, which is about what you've already spent on new parts.

Can your friend pronounce the word " compression " ? Many curb side mechanics don't have a clue in the world , They do stupid cave man stunts/techniques and have bad advice . Just ask here if you have a problem/question
