Thumbs down Back together, but now it won't start DOH!

Got it all back together, and after telling myself repeatedly that I triple checked everything, I tried to start it. I also had a battery jumper attached because it's been sitting for three months.

It cranks ove, but it won't start. It makes a noise kinda like "whir whir WHIR whir whir WHIR" but it never catches?

What's my problem now? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="frown.gif" />
