It is a treasure when you have a “family” motor and the stories that come with it. If it was well loved. likely it is intact and could very well be brought back to life with little effort. If it turns over, check for spark… but caution here. Your twin cylinder motor has an ignition coil with an un-grounded secondary (can be explained latter) … when pulling over the motor be sure that BOTH spark plug wires have a path to ground… for example ground one wire to the engine and the other wire to an exposed spark plug to show the spark. Neglecting to provide both paths to ground, risks ruining the coil by internal short circuit…. and those “twin” Eisermann coils are costly.
