few things is your battery strong enough you may have flooded her clean plugs are you running fuel pump or fuel regulator make sure psi is right pull fuel pipe off regulator key her over make sure petrols getting up there if carbs are second hand make sure diaphrams are ok had trouble starting my pinto after a week cleaned plugs used a jump starter eventually she started hope this helps good luck mate

had her on jump leads just turned over

plugs are dry, tried again there now

think i've both pump + regulator ( to put fuel back to tank )

carbs are 2nd hand but were checked over an all seemed grand

dont know to much did you key her over to with fuel pipe off to make sure petrol is getting to carbs after keying her over for a while plugs should get wet make sure fuel pump is ok also check you have good spark and a good earth is it turning over quick enough

as above make sure its sparking ok

N.Saph

took plugs out, all sparking

checked all connections all petrol getting through

sprayed easy start into the trumpets a she fired up

then a rally man called an noticed my 4th trumpet when blocked with your hand petrol run out
says its doing feck all

so i may get a repair kit or something or anyone no wats needed to free up the last trumpet/carb
