    Big question was it run like that? If it was its liky ruined... if it wasn't it can be drained out and refiled with the proper oil/gas mix.

    If it was run without an oil mix, for any decent period, it will seize the piston or score the cylinder and you will get no compression. If that's the case, time for a new one.
