2 what? Years? Decades? The components you listed will only take of cranking, but not do anything for making the motor catch. You need to check for air, fuel, and spark. After sitting a long time, your biggest issue will likely by fuel delivery.

I see. Try the starter relay as well. Also try a voltage drop test to the starter, it will check continuity of that part of the wire harness, an old harness and recent battery change may have blown an inline fuse or fusible link.
