You need to put some oil in the cylinder so your rings can seal or your not going to get it running. I'd also get some new spark plugs or at a minimum have yours cleaned in a blast cabinet. Then before you try it throw the starting fluid as far as you can. If your carburetor is working right you should be able to see a good spray of gas in the throat of the carburetor. A few good pumps of the carb should be plenty of gas to get it running. I would use a matchbook to clean the points off and then recheck the gap. And last, make sure your battery has a full charge before you try to start it.
