Fresh gas is a good idea. Carb cleaner can help clean some stuff up. 24V
is likely to kill something. I would have squirted Marvel Mystery Oil
into all 4 cylinders first, it's still not too late to do that.
Starting fluid (basically it's ether) works great, but is extremely
flamible and dangerous - have a fire extinguisher handy, beware of
backfires and don't let it puddle or collect anywhere. The fumes are
explosive.
