    I’m certain it sat for 5 yrs, I suppose it could have been 10+. Turned free by hand, just wanted a bit of lube on the rings / walls before I cranked it on the elec start. Both were dead on 90 psi, three days later both are now dead on 95, encouraging. Looking through the plug holes there is some serious carbon build up on the piston tops. No spark, its full elec including shift. I’m tracing out the wires looking to see if I need to jump a couple at the connector before I pull the flywheel. Time and careful, you bet. I need one of these for my resto hull, in my area took me a year to find one.
