    The first diagnostic is always to search for a vacuum leak: http://virtualindian.org/11techleaktest.html
    (Please test even the pan cover screws over each intake port, next to the top motormount studs, as occasionally they have been perforated.)

    Common O-rings suffer badly in modern fuels, but now viton replacements are readily available.

    PS: A motor should start even without getting the plugs "wet".
