First of all try spraying the kill switch with aerosol contact cleaner. Second...you say that the previous owner got it to fire when he jumped it. If it started with another battery, I can only suppose your battery has a problem. Have you tested it? If not, charge it for 5 or 10 hours at 0.75amps (certainly no more than 2amps), disconnect the charger, leave the battery sitting for half an hour, then test the battery voltage with a meter, and let us know the results. Bad battery is one of the most common faults of the GZ.
