timing--> valves?

Do you think the timing off this far would make a car not start and bend the valves? The compression was (4-1): 157-115-155-90. If not, any other ideas on why the car would not start? The CAS is adjusted all the way to the top (on the right adjustment). I have not checked fuel and spark yet. Coolant came out very dirty (possibly oil in it) but I do not see how the compression would drop in two cylinders that are not next to eachother. It would have had to been blown out twice. I do not see how the 3 and the 1 cylinders would have similar compression while the other two are fine. Here is the pic. Oil pump and crank marks are aligned. Thanks in advance, John.
