I'm picking up a family member's 80-ish (not sure exact year model, 80 or 81) PE175 thats been stored for about 6 years, it was probably put up wet. The only known problem right now is a cracked magneto cover. Bike was shutdown immediately after damage to cover. I did a little searching on this forum for a generic 2-stroke revival thread but found little (could be op error using the search tool). What steps would you take to evaluate the condition/health of this engine? Planning to do a visual inspection of any obviously missing parts/leaks then pour a little 2stroke oil in the cyl and carefully try to stroke the piston. Check for spark then add clean fuel/oil to a cleaned tank and start cranking. Sound reasonable?
