I would also check the fuel strainer on the petcock. That bike has been sitting for a while and there is probably debris in the gas tank.
Also I am not sure what kind of fuel you have in Europe but a paper fuel filter like that will clog quickly with the gasoline we have in the US.

Looks like #3 is bridged and #4 is fouled. Have you tried cutting 1/4" off the spark plug leads to make better connections? Plug caps could be bad too.
