Change oil or not?

I last worked on my Allis B over 2 years ago and changed the engine oil at that time and ran it about an hour. The gas tank started leaking and I removed it for repair. It then got on the back burner and hasn't been touched till now. Should I replace the oil again in case condensation has gotten in it or just start it and go? Transmission oil is in the same condition. Change it or use it? Thanks for your opinions.

Oil is cheap as compared to an over haul.

Check it or change it! Don't take risks.
How has it been stored? What climate do you have?
Undo the drain plug just enough thst oil drips out (make sure you can catch it all if you drop the plug!)and check for water, as it will always run to the bottom of the oil.
Check after running up, to see if oil changes to a milky colour.
Just common sense required here. Alternatively - just change it. The choice is yours.

I would say it is probably allright if stored inside but being you are not sure go ahead and change it.
