The Deuce won't start!!

I went up to my 1966 M35a2 today to crank her up and let her run for awhile. I do this every month.
Today, she turned over very strong, but would not fire up. I made sure the STOP ENGINE cable was all the way in. She just would not start. She cranked up last month with no problems and ran great.
Any suggestions???
One of the few, Frank

RE: The Deuce won

Do you have any smoke at all? If not, then there is no fuel getting to the cylinders and you'll have to visually check the fuel stop mechanism on the IP...... at least.

I had the same problem last summer with coincedetally my 66 truck. My stop swith appeared to be in the run position. This occured after I took my manifold heater assembly off.
