Does it sound "normal" when cranking? In other words does it sound like it has compression when you crank it or does it sound like it freewheels? If it sounds like it has compression and the either is actually getting into the cylinders then it should at least bang a couple of times. Maybe a rodent got into it and built a nest in the intake tube or something and it's blocking intake air. Spray the either directly into the intake elbow and see what happens.
