Default difficulty starting

I've got a DD head on a 46fx but haven't started it all summer. Now I've been trying to and can't. The fuel was sitting all sealed up. Does the fuel in the engine/lines gunk up and need to be flushed out? It seems that I get a second of the engine running then immediately dies, and this is after priming with a few drops right into the carb. I already used alcohol to rinse out the engine by turning the engine over and draining. Anything I'm missing or should be doing?
thanks
