Look at the engine to determine on of two things, is it rusted or is it just gunked up?

Gunked up:
Remove all plastic parts and heat the engine up with a heat gun used for monokote. Becareful, it does get hot.

Rusted:
I've done a few methods for this. One is to soak in fuel and the other is penetrating oil. It took about a month to free up Jeremy's Late Uncle Chris's Pee Wee... you just have to check it every night. The engine now runs Smile
