GSL12a85

I decided to take a break from working on the rx-7 for a while, a few weeks, then I decide to go out and start it.... but it wont start no matter how hard I try!
It has fuel, has enough power...


I turn the key it starts whirring, rpms going up and down like its going to start, but keeps whirring, and i give up and the fan is turning and stuff, but not running!
I havent done anything to it since its last been running, not more than 2 weeks ago..

Check for fuel:
Pull off you air filter cover, turn the key to on to run the fuel pump. Pull on the carburetor linkage and see if it squirts fuel down the primary barrels while opening the throttle plates. Turn the key back off.

Check condition of the spark plugs:
Pull spark plugs and keep track of where they were from and see if any are wet or covered with any sort of crud.
