    No problem it wont be to long, some of the older guys need a wee afternoon nap just to restore the old brain cells, followed by tea and biscuits. :p:p

    Old fuel, unless it it had a fault when parked. Modern fuel with ethanol keeps for about 12 months max. If you have good fuel, air and a spark... Good luck!
