Default 89 STD hb won't start need help troubleshooting

89 STD HB everything is stock

so far ive checked:
no ecu codes
dist. timing is good
dist., wires, and plugs good
fuses in engine bay good

car has been sitting for a few months and supposedly did crank a while ago but it did not crank after trying to jump start and letting it charge a few minutes but does not crank at all now. I think it could be fuel related but im not sure where I should check to narrow it down'

so it turns over and wont start? then ya it's more then likly your fuel system. Try replacing your fuel filter, if that dosent work then add some of that Anti Water fuel additive and let it sit a while because water coiuld have got into the system
