get a can of real carb cleaner, put that little straw that comes with it on the spray button, on the intake plenum (large silver thing between the black valve cover and the oil dip stick) find a vacuum line, pull the line off the fitting, put carb cleaner straw into the plenum via that port, spray to a count of five, replace the fitting. try to start. if it coughs and sounds like it will start.... do it again with a count of 10... if that counds like almost start, and most likely a bit longer than last time... you most likely are not getting any gas. Check all of the fuses, then check them again. consider adding 5 gallons of gas and see if it's happy then? Let us know.
