After sitting and before trying to fire, take the ACL lid off and operate the throttle linkage to see if fuel is shot into the carb. No fuel means either fuel bowl heat percolation and/or fuel evaporation has emptied the fuel bowl(s).
Also, a mechanical fuel pump will not hold line pressure over time. The fuel in the pump to carb line drains back to the tank and the pump may take a while to prime. Same as starting an engine having to either prime the fuel bowls and/or having to dribble a little fuel into the carb throat making the engine catch enough to allow the pump to prime itself.
