Default RST won start... :(

Hi,

My RST wont start after a few months in the garage. The battery is fully charged and everything seems to be in order. Tried to put both startgas and fuel direkt into the plenium but still nothing. I've also checked the sparkplugs for spark, and they worked properly.
I dont know what to check next, all clues and ideas are most welcome.

Cheers!

Yeah its working. And even if it didnt I bealive the engine would try to start due to the petrol I was pumping direct into the plenium while truning the key.
