I bet fuel line is clogged, or something along those lines. Depends on who worked on it, but usually if you done completely flush the fuel system good theres a good possibility something got loose in the fuel system and glogged it up. Check and make sure choke is not stuck too. Does it smoke when you try cranking it?

No smoke just sounds like it wants to crank but she won't come alive.

If you wanna drag it to Prosper Sat morning, I would troubleshoot it for free, if I fix it $100.+ any supplies or parts we might need.
