Start with the basics, Will the spark jump 3/8 inch gap? What is the compression? Is there fresh fuel in the carb?

Don't you have adjustable carb jets? Did you preset them? It only takes compression, spark, fuel and timing to make an engine run. You just need to start at the beginning and completely check all systems. Do you have a manual, very important for trouble shooting.

Yes I have a manual and adjusted jets to preset still no luck it sounds like she isn't even firing or trying to go I'm completly stumped!
