When I parked my buggy it was running fine. I let it set for about 4 months and now it will not start. I checked the coil and i'm getting fire all the way to the plugs. I dont know if i'm getting any gas though. I have an inline filter and its not filling up. What should my next step be? thanks

pull the filter to see if you have flow. Is fuel on?

are your valves moving. sounds like your valves are not opening allowing the fuel to enter the combustion chamber.
