My point about running it. Is if it has jumped timing it might already have bent a bunch of valves. A compression test will say for sure I wouldn,t drive it anywhere and would be unsure if I would run it at all until I at least pulled the plugs.
Basic auto shop: An engine only needs 4 things to run a combustible mixture, compression ,a source of ignition, AND everything needs to happen at the right time.
