If fuel isn't getting to your carb it won't run. Pull the fuel ine off the carb and see if fuel is coming out. you might have to turn it over because of a vacuum operated safety valve at the fuel tank. If fuel comes out then your carb is dirty and needs to be cleaned.

If no fuel getting through, have you got any? Is it turned on? Is the fuel fresh? Stored fuel can go off even over winter, It does with my petrol strimmer. As it startes squirting wd40 in, engine is basicaly ok
