should be running 1ml of oil to every 25ml of gas, (25:1)

With the correct mixture (25:1), clean out your gas tank and remove the screw in the bottom of your carb to drain all the old stuff out. I did the same thing and with the right mixture and the carb cleaned, it started right up. You may need to replace your plug, or wire brush it since it's probably fouled up. Good Luck
