Battery is 100%, put new spark plug in, and has gas.
I think the fuel is bad (6 months+ and never uses additives) or he has water/crud in it.
Possibly kink in fuel line, but I believe it's got something to do with the fuel or fuel delivery system.
Can anyone shed some light on this?
Thank very much.

When you say not cranking all the way up, if it's not turning over as fast as it normally does, and your 100 pct. positive that battery is good, take the cables off battery and scrape, wire brush, clean, the posts and cables. You also need to drain the gas tank, do not take a chance on that gas!!!! If you have an in line water seperator filter - change it. When you squeeze the fuel line bulb does it pressure up, if not you could have a bad check valve in that bulb.
