Well, There are no reeds in a piston port engine.
if it's getting good spark, fuel, compression, and it's timed right then it should start and run with no problem. There are a ton of things that could be keeping it from running...
too rich of fuel on the low speed needle flooding it out.
weak spark, not hot enough to ignite the compression.
Bad crank seals causing a case leak.
Bad fuel pump on the carb.
I really need to know a lot more about your setup to narrow it down, can you post a picture of your engine compartment and your carb(s)?
