Default Can't start engine

Hello everyone,

Today I tried to start the engine on an old airplane i've been restoring to make sure it works. I previously got the engine all lubricated, got new fuel lines and cleaned out the gas tank. When I tried to start it today, closly following this video's instructions http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0YchaYek1I . I blocked the carb opening and spun the propellor around several times but never felt any fuel. I couldn't see it going through the fuel line either.

What am I forgetting to do? I've checked to make sure nothing's blocking the fuel line.
