won't start after sitting for 1 year 700 1986

Hello- I have a n/a 740 gle, it has been sitting in my drive for a little over a year and now I want to start driving it again. Bought a new battery and it turns over great, but won't start; I put some new gas in it but still no go [maybe I just need to try and get some more new gas in there] I really would like to get this moved in the next few hours and was hoping someone might have had a similar problem and could point me in the right direction. It was starting and running great when I parked it. I checked the connection from the coil and spark plug wires, checked the fuses. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
