I can't help with I.D. of the engine, but check spark, fuel and compression in that order. No spark could be a number of things, plugs, bad coil, charge coil, kill switch grounded or wiring. If you have spark (nice bright bluish white spark, not a weak yellow spark) pull the plugs, ground the wires and put your fingers over the holes while cranking, that will tell you 2 things. You should get some fuel on your finger tips if you have fuel getting to the cylinders and the compression should blow your fingers off the holes.

I have a 1985 suk that is silver and black. I think the white ones were older Id quess around a 1981 or so, all if it has been sitting for awhile you might as well pull the carbs and clean them, use some compressed air allso, Id be that will be your problem I have owend 3 suks and they have been some of the best motors I have ever had.
