they need 4 things to run, gas, air, spark and compression, check the spark and if that's ok, then try uping the compression with a little oil, mix a gas and 2 cycle oil in a 50/50 solution and pour a tablespoon down the carb, that will increase the compression and help it start. It may smoke for a bit.
flooding can cause this condition by washing down the cylinder walls, that's what happened to mine

It could be several things. If its not the fuel pump, maybe its the points in the distributor are worn out, or a sending unit is bad, or the condenser or maybe the voltage regulator.It could be a broken wire too.

Carb probably needs servicing or the fuel pump might be bad.
