Everybody else covered the rest of the topics. But you should fill it all the way up just to be sure. It’s possible that for some reason the fuel pick up is malformed or not where you would expect it to be so it may not catch some little splash in the bottom.

Might as well completely eliminate that one.

Also, maybe pull the fuel hose and turn the petcock on to test. See if a good amount of fuel is splashing out. That’s a good start to make sure you’re starting from a good foundation.

Everyone else detailed the starting process already. And finally, you should check spark. But that’s the more difficult one, so might as well start with the really easy stuff first.
