What should my engine compression be

Hi I picked up a used Redcat buggy. I cant for the life of me get this thing started. I checked compression - after a few pulls it gets up to 110psi, Its got spark, I put on a new car, clean gas (32:1). I cant get this thing to start, I am no stranger to small engines - but this things is driving me nuts. Is it possible the compression is too low ?

Thanks

You’re not mixing fuel are you? Isn’t that a gas engine?

Menza1 it's a 2 cycle gas engine which requires a fuel/oil mixture for normal operations.
