These 2 cylinder starting engines need a good flow of fuel and hot spark. In good running order, they'll start with the hand crank.
Clean the screen leading into the carb, make sure the fuel tank is not full of coffee grind rust particles and also make sure the sediment bowl screen is not restricted. The zenith carbs are not hard to clean. How is the spark from the magneto ? What kind of spark plugs and what plug wire type does it have, hopefully solid wire. There are a bunch of little things with these, if it has decent compression, should run.
Use care with these, always and I mean always check the oil level and condition, they can easily fill up with fuel and thin the oil,so much the fuel will run out the dipstick tube, best to run it out, shut the fuel valve off. Regular oil changes won't hurt either, I used to carefully extract it with a drill pump and small diameter hose, by removing the side inspection cover. The sump drain plug is a pain to get to. I used care to clean around the area so as to not allow any dirt into the sump.
Also be aware that without the diesel spinning, no coolant is circulating, the diesel must be engaged soon after the starting engine fires up. One last thing is be aware of over speeding these when the diesel fires up, there is an adjustment on the pinion to set when it kicks out. I used to keep my hand on the throttle linkage and slow it down as soon as the diesel fires.
