I went through I the easy thing to check:plugs,fuel, spark and chokes...then i thought it was a vaccume problem so i started plugging lines, nothing worked it would turn all day long with spark in all cylinders but it wouldn't start so i got pissed off and blew into the vent lines on the carbs and as soon as i hit the button it started, it wouldn't idle and it was running way to rich then when i stopped blowing it quit.
