Well, you didn't really give us much to work with detail wise so I'll just tell you what I'd do.
First, check the compression. It's no use going to a lot of effort if the engines shot. Then go over the engine visually looking for problems. Reset the carb needles to factory settings and clean the air filter. Next, replace the glow plug and fuel & preasure lines. Get fresh fuel and a freshly charged glow ignitor.
Be sure that the radios have good batterys and that all the controls are working properly.
Now try to start it again.
Let us know what happens then. The more details that you can provide the better we'll be able to help.
