Unhappy Fouled plugs after 5 months of storage and a light ride home

So I went to pick up my car yesterday and the jerk that I rented from basically shut the door in my face as soon as I left...whatever. I fogged the engine before I put her away last year so she didn't start right away. I babied her home after using a lot of fuel pump to get her started and today she won't start. Plugs stink like fuel and she just cranks over. Looks like I fouled the plugs. I was using a cheap set of Accel's in the Edlebrock heads...what are you guys using in your aluminum heads??? I need a good set of plugs. BTW- What kind of damage can be done by cranking the engine several times? It took me a little while to figure out that the problem wasn't my noisey Cartech external fuel pump.....it was the plugs not sparking due to being too damp.

Did it run ok before you stored it? Maybe your gas just went bad.
