i always fill the bores with marvel mystery oil through the plug holes and let it soake for a day or two before i start em. i did it to a cb350 not long ago and just took it for a ride around town yesterday, and it sat outside for about 10 years. of course i put in new points and condensers and cleaned the carbs but i didnt have to mess with the motor at all. good luck gettin er goin.
