I know this motor runs but it's been sitting. I changed the batteries and have new fuel ready.

Does anyone know what other steps I should take before I try firing it. Maybe a chemical or additive or a flushing trick of some kind.

Thanks,

Rich W.

Thoroughly clean and rebuild the carburetors so as to avoid running the engine with a lean mixture. Sitting for that length of time, they're most certainly fouled somewhat.
