Default 15 hp johnson / rebuilt/won't start...

Greetings:

I'll keep this tale short.

I over heated my 15 hp johnson..impeller died. Cylinder wall reasonable /
honed both. New rings on the pistons, all new gaskets and it is back together.

Good compression, visible spark w/ plugs out, carb float set level when held
upside down. Timing is not adjustable so I don't think I messed that up.

Anyway, no starting or firing. I don't think I'm getting fuel, or...something
else that is more elusive. Any step by step advice to absolutly track this
prob down? This must be a simple issue. I need air and fuel in the right mix
and spark at the right time and wham-o....I am back on the water.

Thanks in advance.

BL
