It acts like it wants to start, but it wont! It has gas in it. Its getting gas and also checked the battery. Need suggestions on what else it could be?

Are you getting spark and fuel to the engine? You may see gas but is there enough pressure?

Here is a how to for checking fuel pressure and for spark.

Let me know what you find. Also, if you need the gauge, most parts stores will lend or rent them.
