Do a diagnotic test check it for faults. Have you got a fuel pressure gauge, if so are you getting good pressure, my 1 year old walbro fuel pump gave up the other day i was getting fuel to the cylinders but just had really low pressure & it didnt want to start. If you bridge terminals +B & Fp on the diagnostic plug it will run your fuel pump as soon as your switch the ignition on, so you can check your getting good pressure if you've got a gauge. If its a ignition or bad cross over earth (especially the small one which goes from the gearbox to the chassis) it wont start but should bring up code 12 on diag test.

few squirts of engine oil down the bores and turn it over with your foot flat on the gas pedal, worth a go!

if not spray some brake cleaner in the inlet see if it fires on that, if it does its deffo fuel
