I have a 1993 F150 XL with a 4.9L L6 automatic tranny. Its got about 160k miles and started up with no problem before. Before I put the new battery in all I needed was to jump it and it would start and run perfect. When I moved to my father's I left it in my mom's driveway. It hasn't been started in about 2 months and I put fresh gas in it and tried to start it about a week ago and all it does is turn over. I have a brand new battery and even jumped it. When it turns over I can smell gas but it doesn't start.I was thinking I could have a fouled plug but i'm not sure.

It may not be turning over fast enough to start, check the battery for failure and replace if needed and then get back to us

The spark may not be 'strong' enough to fire the fuel. Check to see how the spark looks. It could be the coil
