as JimBlake suggested, give the carb a good cleaning--it's most likely that.
If that doesn't work, you could also try: fresh gas--i.e., are you using last year's gas? Last year's gas is likely turning into varnish by now and has lost many octane points.
Are you sure you have gas flow? i.e., maybe a kink/clog in the fuel line?
Maybe your engine is flooded? Take out the spark plug and turn the engine over manually a few times to get excess gas out of there...particularly excess old gas.
Try another plug--maybe you got a bad one by chance? Plugs are cheap.
Are you positive you have air? That's the 3rd of the 3 necessary ingredients in addition to gas and spark.
