Hi Adam, and welcome to Outdoorking. I'm not a Victa plastic carburetor guy, but perhaps I can get you started until one comes along. Simplistically, there are three things your engine needs before it will start: fuel, compression, and spark. You need to ensure it has all three. You could start by removing the spark plug, grounding its body with the plug lead connected to it, set the controls in the starting position, and pull the starter cord while watching the spark plug gap. You should see a series of blue sparks. If you don't, that has to be fixed, and we'll talk about it. If you do see sparks, move to step two. Reinstall and reconnect the spark plug, disconnect the fuel line from the carburetor and put a tin under it, and turn on the fuel. You should see a stream of fuel coming out of the hose into the tin. If you do, remove the spark plug again and squirt a modest amount of fuel into the spark plug hole, reinstall and reconnect the spark plug, then pull the starter. If it fires and runs briefly, then stops, your problem is inside the dreadful plastic carburetor. If that happens we'll try to find someone who can help you with that without throwing up.
