first no fire, now another problem

[gafiredog]

got the dist. problem solved, now another problem. after letting it run for about 5 minutes, i cut it off to tighten down the dist. went back to start it, turned over about 20-30 times before it started. let it run for about 5 more minutes, cut it off, and waited about 5 minutes tried to start it, ran down the battery trying to start it, never did start that time. carb. gone bad due to sitting for about 10 months ? any ideas ? thanks, Art
