      Hi,

      I got a Rotox FR-125 from a friend that was last run 10 years ago.  The last thing he did was to run the carb dry, but no oil or such put into the cylinder to prevent rust.  It has been stored in a trailer (we are in SoCal, so mild weather).

      The engine looks in good shape externally, I wonder what is the minimum thing I need to do vs the best thing I can do before I try to start it up.  Any pointer will be most appreciated!
