It didn't start when you bought it? Or it will not start now?

Two things you need are spark and fuel. I would check to see if you are getting spark first then I would check to see if you have enough fuel pressure. If you have both of those then you will have to start checking sensors to make sure they are working. Their could be any number of things making the car not start but that is the order that I would start in.

Guess you have to replace/repair what the mouse chewed up. Take pictures of the damage and post them.
