First, determine which cylinder is bad. Touch the exhaust pipes to determine which is hotter.(the pipes get VERY hot so be quick or use a non-contact thermometer.)
Remove and look at the bad cylinder's plug, if ti's wet you are getting fuel, try replacing it. (Heck, replace it anyway.)
If there is no fuel on the plug the carburetor might be plugged or need cleaning.
