What Joe said....
Look into the gas tank with a flashlight and make sure there's nothing n the bottom of tank that could be clogging the screen on your petcock.

Sounds like you need a stoke installer tool to convert it to a 4 stroke

For me , black oil leaking out the exhaust was the result of a leaking crank seal.

Every RM125 all the way back to 1984 leaks black oil out the exhaust in stock form.... they are simply too rich from the factory. If nobody ever changed the jetting, this is 98% likely to be your problem.
Change the spark plug, put fresh gas in it, mixed at 32:1. I bet she'll fire right up.
