NA stumbles
I found a nice 88 NA car that I am interested in buying. And I'm new to rotaries.
It hasn't been driven in about 2 years. It's got 70k km on the clock, very clean underneath.
It struggles a bit starting, but idles well at 800rpm.
It revs up ok, but stumbles a bit returning to idle.
I realize there isn't much information to go on here... and the engine hasn't been checked out yet (will be tomorrow). May the stumbles be an indication of a deeper problem? Could it just be old gas or a case of needing a tune-up?
Thanks for any advice or tips.

No, doesn't sound like popping.
Hard to say how it sounded from the back since I was the one working the gas pedal.
I haven't driven the car yet, just revved it while parked.
I'm looking at it again tonight. I'll have a better idea after that.
