Ok Roger, basic engine 101.
You must have 5 things to make an gasoline engine run.
1-fuel
2-spark
3-air
4-compression
5-everything must happen at the right time.
I would first pull each plug and see if all the plugs are fireing and in the right order.
Second I would make sure the carb is getting fuel and the bowl is not flooded or the needle and seat are not stuck closed.
If everything here is ok I would run a compression test while the plugs are out.
If you have fuel, spark, and compression then I would put a timeing gun on the thing and then it should be running.
Hope this helps,
K
