couple other things ya may wanna do before you try and start er up mike, after you oil her up like the other guys posted and get her broke loose, i'd drop the bowl down off the carburetor and clean the crud out with a spray can of carb cleaner, gently raise and lower the float to be sure its not stuck, clean the sediment bowl under the fuel tank, it has a wire bail that holds the glass bowl on, unscrew the nut on the bottom and swing the bail away. put a little fuel in it after you get the bowl back together, and open the valve to see if gas comes out in the carb. you should get a good flow, if not you got some cleanin to do. then pull a spark plug, crank the motor over and see if you get spark, if so good so far. last thing i'd do is pull all the spark plugs, put yor finer in each spark plug hole, crank engine and check for compression, it should push your finger out. kind of a quick check to see if any valves are stuck. if you look good so far, button everything up, have the wife and kids plan an escape route and fire her up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
