When you say you have spark to the plugs are you refering the wires? or have you pulled the plugs and checked spark at the electrode? It should start with a squirt of gas down the carb if only momentarily so I wouldnt worry about it atomizing at the top of the carb. While its unlikely that enough valves would stick in a week to keep it from starting you would still get backfiring out the carb or exhaust if they did.
