put a little throttle when you are trying to start it. maybe change the plug you never know. it might be flooded take the plug out flip the car and turn the gnine over a couple time (pull the pull start) re-install the plug and try again. also make sure fuel is getting to the carb. blow on the pressure line (line from the pipe to the tank) until fuek reaches the car then try to staart again.

When you put on your glow ignitor on the plug is it nice and bright?? You can preheat it. As mentioned need to give it throttle as well!

Are you priming teh line also? Can you see the fuel going through the line. Sometimes teh fuel will gum up the line or carb from sitting and you will get a blockage.
