There is a slight chance, if you can let it idle a while (maybe ten - fifteen minutes) and then nurse it along enough to get it going, that you can cure it by simply putting 150 miles (about a tank of gas) on it. More than likely there is a small obstruction (plaque) of some kind in one or more of the carb jets. These will sometimes take care of themselves with the cleaning additives in the gas. However, some obstructions are beyond this approach and more direct measures need to be taken.
If you surf around the forum a bit you will find the number one GZ problem is difficult starting/idling/running and it is almost always a symptom of lack of regular use. Some of these carb problems can be stubborn and require several cleaning attempts to get resolved.
