Sounds like old gas gummed up the needle and seat of the carburetor causing it to "flood". You might drain the old gas and put in fresh gas, remove the fuel line from the carb and give it a few shots of carb cleaner into the fuel inlet then hook up the gas line and get it running again. If that doesn't work remove the carb take it apart and clean it up, the needle and set and especially the jets. And if all that fails ... a new carburetor. Check your fuel lines, filter and petcock while you're at it.
