Where to Start

You guys have been so helpful getting my 42 N running that I come back here first. Last week with all the confusion with grandkids at the farm I let the N run out of gas. Naturally it won't start with new gas. It does fire once or twice and quits; wait a few minutes same thing. Have my own ideas but wanted to hear any other opinions as to where to start.
 
Standard procedure I would say. Got good spark?
Might not have if it ran out of gas and the key wasn't shut off.
If it has good spark, check for fuel flow through the carb.
 
assuming you actually have enough gas to run.. I'd say your fuel flow is obstructed and you are only getting a trickle to carb.

This also assumes good spark and that after running out last time you didn't let the points n coil bake for hours..
