"Hello. I'm new to this forum---HELLO.
I have a Yamaha Model 4SD which had only been used 3 times, but has sat in my garage for 10 years! It was on its side...rather than straight up-and-down for the entire 10 years, and not moved. Even worse, it has gas in it! This is the model where the gas tank is built into the unit itself.
I hope its not ruined because of this?
Anyway---I'd like to get it running. Can anyone give me advise on what to do next? I'm assuming I should empty the gas, replace the spark plug??
Also, what is the Mixture on gas/oil? I'm assuming I mix the gas/oil before I place it in the tank?
Thanks again. Tom C."
