    Remove the sparkplugs and see if they are damp with fuel. If they are dry then fuel is not getting that far. The hi-speed needle on the carb should be open about 3/4 turn and the low speed needle should be 1/2 turn open. This is a starting point, I think these have to be cold started on the rich side.
