Do the three Fs: Fuel. look down the carb and make sure you can squirt gas when the throttle is pressed. Fire. Pull the coil wire and see if you have spark by using a long screw driver and holding it about 1/8 inch from ground. Function. Does it turn over? Are the pistons moving up and down? Does it make compression.

Do the Fs in order. You may end up pulling the plugs and swapping out for a new set to get her to run.

Hope this helps.
