Wow. You're a genius.

If you are being sarcastic, haha. If not, an engine needs the proper air/fuel ratio, compression and spark at the right time to start and run. Find out which of the three is missing. A short blast of carburetor cleaner right into the carburetor itself is a good way to test for missing fuel. If you spray a shot in the carburetor and the engine starts, runs and then dies right away you are missing fuel. I replace lots of honda carburetors for various reasons, it's not uncommon.
