Can you hear the fuel pump running? If so pull the air cleaner and see if the accel pump squirts fuel when you open the throttle. If that works, pump it a few times and hold the throttle about 1/4 down and crank. That's how my carb'ed 1.7 likes to start. If you're not getting fuel out of the accel pump you need to fix that first… Good luck
