WAAAAAIIIIIT ! !!!!

BEFORE you try to start that sucker, get some Marvel Mystery Oil and pour a teaspoon into each spark plug hole. Seriously. Your engine, after 2 years of inaction, has gotten a bit stiff inside. Leave the plugs OUT and turn over the engine a few times- the starter will work the oil around the cylinder walls, and you won't kill her when you start her up for real.

Then put the plugs back in, toss a little gas into the carb, and try to crank her up. She'll smoke like crazy for a bit.
