Default Starting probs with Golf GTI 1988

yes the engine did run, its been sitting around for about five years, it
turns over, i have changed the spark plugs but still not firing. When i turn
the engine over it keeps goin then suddenly it stops, like duh, then i turn
it over again and it keeps goin then does it again, after turning it over i
took out a spark plug and it smelt of petrol so obviously its not igniting it,
could it be the distributer/coil, or possibly the timing?
