I'd have been more thinking along the line that it was fouled carbs... did you have a filter on the gas line? Fouled plugs will stay fouled until replaced or cleaned.. The likelyhood of they're firing just by spraying gas into the carbs is not really high. I'm a little confused though... did you say that she's running now?
