When gasoline sits for a long time, it evaporates and leaves behind that crud. The stuff is blocking the pilot jet in the carb, preventing it from running.
Remove the jet (long skinny jet) and hold it up to the light. You should be able to see through it.
Get some carb cleaner that comes in a spray can. Spray through every hole in the carb. If the spray comes out a different passage way, then that circuit is clear.
Let the jet you just removed, soak in some carb cleaner over night.
