no start 850 1995

Please help! I have a 95 850T and it suddenly does not want to start after I back it out of the garage and drove it back in. I tried all of the recommendations I found on the board such as cranking the motor with the pedal to the floor several times but to no avail. I also tried changing the spark plugs and injecting several drops of oil into each cylinder. The only thing I have not done is changing the oil. I verified thati got a spark from each plug. My battery is fully charged. I am unsure if I dropped enough oil in each cylinder to raise the compression. How much is enough. How long should I crank the motor each time I try to start it. How long should I let the starter rest to cool off before attempting to restart. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
