I flooded mine once and if was a bear to get cleared out. Ended up pulling the plug and blowing out the cylinder with compressed air, and installing a new plug. Proper plug is an NGK BPR6HS ( I went wild and put a BPR6HIX iridium plug in mine)
If the plug looks dry, you could take off the air filter and give it a shot of ether or carb cleaner and see if it runs off that for a few seconds. If it does, you have a fuel issue. I priced out a carburetor once, think it was only around $30.
If I recall correctly, there is a screen in the shutoff valve on the gas tank as well, might want to check and make sure that isn't clogged.
