Did you run stabilizer in gas when parked for a few months?The reason I ask is gas nowadays seems to go bad fairly quick,or you might have sucked up some dirt and plugged up jets?
 
it sounds like the pump discharge needle is stuck and no fuel is sent out of the squirters. You didn't indicate that it flooded so that is a good thing. You arre going to have to pull the metering rods and the top off the carb to see what is going on in there.
