Please confirm you have spark, and you have compression.

Then let's look at the fuel system, since there's a lot to check there.

Is this a B27 or B28 engine? What year model?

As above, spark and compression are the start. Some background would be useful too, did it just stop one day, has it been in storage for ten years, what is the story that led to it not starting.

Yes can you please describe the symptoms a little more too.

Does it nearly catch but not quite?
Or does it just crank forever like there’s no fuel?
Is there a fuel smell when it cranks & cranks?

Also what’s your experience-level, in terms of tinkering with it & fixing/servicing it?
