Engine Health Concerns After Starting a Rotary that has sat for 2+ years
I'm going to be looking at a 1st gen race car that hasn't raced in 5 years. The current owner said that he regularly started the engine for the first 2.5 years but hasn't started it since then. My rotary knowledge isn't very extensive so I'm concerned about starting the engine back up after it sitting that long as well as the issue of a frozen seal and one failing shortly after getting the engine running again. What sort of things should I think about and how real of an issue is motor failure happening shortly after getting the engine running again and back up to speed so to speak?
