strange.....if the chain was seriously worn it would have made a rattling noise well before giving up,which you would have noticed before going away...if its jumped a tooth on the sprocket it is possible that it wont start,if its jumped more than one tooth there is risk that piston has hit a valve or two,if the chains broken the engine will turn over a lot quicker than usual....if i were you i would start by taking the rocker cover off and see if the chains still in one piece and check for tension by trying to pull it off the sprockets,if all appears to be ok do a compression test,this will tell you if you have a bent valve
.....good luck and dont forget to tell us the outcome


One, is never going to be enough.....
