1. if the engine will not turn over (the kickstart wont move) then it is siezed either top or bottom end. 2.if you start it up and you hear a loud clicking noise that is louder than normal then chances are that you snapped a valve and there will be no compression. 3.if you simply done have any power there are many possibilityes but the main cause would be you need new rings and or your valves need checked. both of these things would allow air to pass through and lessen your compression.

How do you tell if a motor is blown?
Your answers will vary on this, however I do not consider a motor "blown" unless it has a hole in it caused by an explosion or internal malfunction such as a rod thrown through the engine block, or if it has over heated ( extreamly ) and warped the engine. if the engine is not fixable I say its blown. Some others will call it blown if just the headgaskets are blown or maybe if the engine jumped timing. These are fixable and even if an engine piston rod is broke but has not injured the block it also can be fixed. each Mechanic has their own opinion on what is called blown, some will call it blown just because they don't want to work on that model. Get a second opinion always !
