The fuel shouldn't matter if your just trying to start it. Just make sure all your fluids are there, and you have a good battery. If your car doesn't start check the spark and see if its flooded. Then go from there.

One last thing is you may want to do a compression check before you start. You may be trying to beat a dead horse so to speak.
