It could be a lot of things, and that is just what they are things. Little dirty old worn out things designed to last 20 to 40 years if taken care of.

Fuel will separate just after 1 month now and leave most of the gummy crap embedded with any residual dirt and grime in the fuel system.

Try running the old snake oil fix syndrome. Chevron Techron Fuel system cleaners. Do this multiple times once running.

First focus on Fuel Pressure test, with a 20 buck tool at your local auto parts store, then on to the Ignition. What carburetor do you have? Any visible leaks at the Carb or Manifold?

Show pics as you work, this will help us give you the correct guidance. There is uncommonly large amount of resources on here.
