up until the past week my roadrunner started up right away. I put electronic ignition in several years ago and that helped with it starting. Last week when I tried to back it out of the garage it wouldn't start. It turns over ok but it won't fire, I tried starter fluid to make sure it had fuel still nothing. I am thinking it has to be a a spark problem. I thought maybe it could be the eletronic control module (orange box). It put a new one ans still it doesn't fire up. any ideas ??
 
Have you checked for spark at a plug, have you looked down the carb and opened the throttle looking for a squirt of gas?
 
I put new plugs in last summer. I have not checked at the plug yet. But I squirted some starter fluid into the carb and no fire there
 
Grab one of these. Makes it easy. Until you know whether or not you have spark at the plugs you're just grasping at straws...
