When your cranking the motor,cover the mouth of the carb with your hand. If the compression is good and the case is not leaking, suction will be strong. If the carb is getting fuel you will also get fuel to spit on your hand when you cover the carb while cranking the engine over too. That one way of also priming the carb if you took the carb bowl off and no fuel was in there.

The also is the bystarter plugged in? If it is then that might be faulty.
