When cleaning the carb did you set the lever needle?
Problems with non starts can be the carb not sealing due to the needle lever.
Have you tried dopping the cylinder with fuel?

check spark arrestor and muffler first, second do a vacuum pressure test on the crankcase,you may have seals leaking,also check the cylinder wall and piston skirt
