I think that says no spark. When I check I'll report back but I
think this may clinch it.

Well then, we know you're GETTING fuel to the carb.
When you see/say the plug was wet - it shouldn't be - unless
you had just very recently primed it.

That doesn't say anything as to whether you're getting spark.

Take the plug out, put the spark plug cap/boot on the plug.
Ground the bottom of the plug against the engine.
With switch turned 'on', pull the cord. You should see
a spark. You'll often 'hear' it as well.
