Tried starting the truck this morning after charging the battery all night. It sputtered the first time but never again. Plan B..... took the advice several of you offered and poured some gasoline down the carb, then hit the stomp starter again and it finally lit. Success!! I think it was a combination of a low battery and no fuel in the carb and fuel line. The rich fuel mix fouled out the #4 plug, but after taking it out, cleaning it, and reinstalling the motor ran like a sewing machine!

Thanks everyone for your suggestions.
