Put a new battery in it before trying. Checked plugs. Spark looks ok and no fuel apparently at plugs. Hear a cycle sound inside tank and my son says he hears fluid moving.........

Probably not. How long is "a while"? A low battery will crank the engine, but not have enough left over to fire the plugs. Probably flooded. Replace the plugs. Connect a good charger to the battery, or jump it off a car and try again.
