These are hard to diagnose ...

What kind of coaxing did you do to get it to start?

When it started, how did it run? OK from the get-go? Started firing on one or two cylinders, then all, then ran smoothly? Sputtered for a minute after starting? Could you hear the fuel pump when you cranked the engine?
